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 -- Package-specific info: ** Environment settings: INTERFACE="gtk2" ** /home/arian/.reportbugrc: reportbug_version "4.4" mode standard ui gtk2 email "[email protected]" smtphost "post.webmailer.de" smtpuser "[email protected]" -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (700, 'testing'), (650, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.29-2-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages reportbug depends on: ii apt 0.7.21 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii python 2.5.4-2 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-reportbug 4.4 Python modules for interacting wit reportbug recommends no packages.
