Package: reportbug
Version: 4.4
Justification: renders package unusable
Severity: grave

reportbug crashes when attempting to file bug report email via smtp,
discovers that it needs a password
and attempting to ask the user because the ui-class does not have the
called method, as the traceback shows:

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 1877, in <module>
   main()
 File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 895, in main
   return iface.user_interface()
 File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 1869, in user_interface
   smtphost, self.options.smtpuser, self.options.smtppasswd,
self.options.paranoid)
 File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/reportbug/submit.py", line 374, in
send_report
   smtppasswd = ui.get_password(

This renders it hardly usable for anyone attempting to file bugs this
way as he has to take another way
(save the bug report locally eg) and, even more annoying, has to rewrite
the bug report
