Package: reportbug
Version: 6.6.1

reportbug, when invoked in text mode, generates the python traceback
pasted below. The particular traceback points to an ImportError for name
HTTPSConnection. The debian maintainers for python 2.7 have been aware
of similar problems (eg. bug #659831), to which their response (February
2013) was "this aint a tracking bug thus closing. individual packages
failures with python 2.7 should be filed as such".

So, I'm doing what they recommend, and am filing this bug as a failure
in reportbug to be compatible with python2.7.

My suggestion is that the dependency chain for reportbug require a
version of python that works with it (v2.6?).

Alternatively, It's been pointed out to me that there exists a debian
python package called virtualenv that might be useful for this. If so,
then the install could check if the target has a later version of python
installed, then also install virtualenv, and create an instance of
python in which reportbug will work.

Following is the Traceback, and the extended version info.

You are using an outdated version of python2.7, update it, as that's
the cause of the problem (and its interaction with openssl and SSL3),
reportbug has been compatible with 2.7 for years.

Next time, please seek guidance on users support forums like
debian-users mailing list.
