Package: reportbug
Version: 6.4.4
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
As in the subject. This happens for example with package python-matplotlib.
Here is output from shell:
"
darkestkhan $ reportbug
Please enter the name of the package in which you have found a
problem, or type 'other' to report a more general problem.
> python-matplotlib

Please change your locale if this is incorrect.

Your version of python-matplotlib (1.3.0-1) is newer than that in
Debian! Do you still want to file a report [y|N|q|?]? q
"
After checking at packages.debian.org/search?keywords=python-matplotlib
I can see that 1.3.0-1 is version available in Sid for amd64
(but for hurd-* and kfreebsd-* newest version available is 1.1.1~rc2-1).
This information is highly confusing, especially that only this archs enabled
on this system are amd64 and i386 (foreign).

python-matplotlib/1.3.0 was uploaded to sid on 2013-08-06, and this
report is from 2013-08-09; what I suspect is that there was a delay in
updating the tool[1] reportbug uses to verify if a newer version is
available.

now it works correctly, hence closing the report.
