Package: reportbug
Version: 6.2.1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
In order to solve another reportbug problem (#), I moved my .reportbugrc
away from ~, in order to make reportbug regenerate a fresh configuration. Since
reportbug doesn't work on my system right now, I'm reporting this through
ordinary email.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Then I ran 'reportbug', and it started to prompt me for information, as
expected. Transcript is given below.
* What was the outcome of this action?
reportbug crashed, I think due to a non-ascii latter in my name? See
transcript.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I expected reportbug to create a configuration file, even though
my name is not pure ascii. The problem goes away if I change my name to
something ascii.
Transcript of reportbug session after removing .reportbugrc:
tmac@asus:~$ reportbug
Welcome to reportbug! Since it looks like this is the first time you have used
reportbug, we are configuring its behavior. These settings will be saved to the
file "/home/tmac/.reportbugrc",
which you will be free to edit further.
Please choose the default operating mode for reportbug.
1 novice Offer simple prompts, bypassing technical questions.
2 standard Offer more extensive prompts, including asking about things that a
moderately sophisticated user would be expected to know about Debian.
3 advanced Like standard, but assumes you know a bit more about Debian,
including "incoming".
4 expert Bypass most handholding measures and preliminary triage routines.
This mode should not be used by people unfamiliar with Debian's policies and
operating procedures.
Select mode: [novice] 3
Will reportbug often have direct Internet access? (You should answer yes to this
question unless you know what you are doing and plan to check whether duplicate
reports have been filed via
some other channel.) [Y|n|q|?]?
What real name should be used for sending bug reports?
