Package: reportbug Version: 4.12.6 Severity: normal I quite often hit the "This package does not appear to be installed; continue with this report [y|N|q|?]?" prompt, which defaults to "no". I often end up reporting bugs on uninstalled packages, either because I need to report the bug from a different system, or because I want to report a bug on a component of d-i or similar, or due to a bug that prevents installing the package. Please consider either defaulting this question to "Yes" or offering an option to do so, preferably the former.
