Package: reportbug
Version: 7.5.2
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
* I found a bug in another package, but reportbug crashed when I tried to use
it.
* When going through the initial setup, I chose the gtk gui, saved and quit,
then did the following:
** Run 'reportbug' (or 'reportbug -u gtk')
** Click 'next'
** Typed any package name, e.g. 'reportbug', click 'next'
** "Checking for new versions at madison..." header shows up
** Program crashes, window disappears, error message printed:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 2285, in

TypeError: cannot unpack non-iterable NoneType object
Here's the contents of .reportbugrc that didn't work (comments removed):
reportbug_version "7.5.2"
mode standard
ui gtk
realname "P D"
email "deb-b...@ch.pkts.ca"
no-cc
list-cc-me
smtphost reportbug.debian.org
By changing the line 'ui gtk' to 'ui text', I was able to make reportbug work.
Thanks!
