Hi,

When using reportbug with ui "newt" it dies before the bug report with:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 1820, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 847, in main
    return iface.user_interface()
  File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 1761, in user_interface
    charset=charset)
  File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 151, in handle_editing
    (message, changed) = ui.spawn_editor(message or dmessage, filename,
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'spawn_editor'

Thanks,

Guido
