Package: reportbug
Version: 3.46
Severity: important

When trying to fill out a bug report for openoffice-writer from experimental, I recieved tese errors:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 1827, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 850, in main
    return iface.user_interface()
  File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 1386, in user_interface
    version=pkgversion)
  File "/usr/share/reportbug/reportbuglib/reportbug_ui_text.py", line 513, in handle_bts_query
    mirrors, http_proxy, screen, title)
  File "/usr/share/reportbug/reportbuglib/reportbug_ui_text.py", line 591, in browse_bugs
    sys.stderr.write(line.decode('utf-8').encode(output_encoding, "replace"))
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/encodings/utf_8.py", line 16, in decode
    return codecs.utf_8_decode(input, errors, True)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode bytes in position 125-126: invalid data

All I was doing was trying to fill out a bug report for oo.o-writer.
