Package: reportbug Version: 4.12.4em1 Severity: normal I tried to send this comment using the desktop file:
Testing again from the desktop file this time, after configuring reportbug to use reportbug.debian.org. Interesting that reportbug configure gets the right name and email address and comments those out of the /home/user/.reportbugrc as the values are "default". As much as possible, I'm trying to test this with reportbug configured only using reportbug itself, rather than editing ~/.reportbugrc - the original discussion was about users who probably wouldn't think about editing the file. I got this error: SMTP send failure: (550, 'No valid sender found in the From:, Sender: and Reply-to: headers'). Do you want to retry (or else save the report and exit)?? This is sent from the command line, explicitly setting [email protected] Maybe reportbug should write out ~/.reportbugrc to specify the default name and email even if it is the default, or maybe something in the desktop file call is causing the environment to be dropped and the commented out default is then not read in? -- Package-specific info: ** Environment settings: EDITOR="vim" DEBEMAIL="[email protected]" INTERFACE="gtk2" ** /home/neil/.reportbugrc: reportbug_version "4.12.4" mode novice ui gtk2 no-cc header "X-Debbugs-CC: [email protected]" smtphost reportbug.debian.org -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages reportbug depends on: ii apt 0.7.25.3em1 Advanced front-end for dpkg (gripp ii python 2.6.5-5em1 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-reportbug 4.12.4em1 Python modules for interacting wit reportbug recommends no packages. reportbug suggests no packages. -- no debconf information *** /home/neil/.reportbugrc # reportbug preferences file # character encoding: UTF-8 # Version of reportbug this preferences file was written by reportbug_version "4.12.4" # default operating mode: one of: novice, standard, advanced, expert mode novice # default user interface ui gtk2 # offline setting - comment out to be online #offline # name and email setting (if non-default) # realname "Neil Williams" # email "[email protected]" # Disable fallback mode by commenting out the following: no-cc header "X-Debbugs-CC: [email protected]" smtphost reportbug.debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
