When reportbug asks the user in text mode for package version, it crashes : 

reportbug --debug -A reportbug_4.0.dsc -A divers/toto/zaza.txt zozo

    '(blank OK)', empty_ok=True, force_prompt=True)
TypeError: get_string() got an unexpected keyword argument 'empty_ok'

text_ui/get_string() doesn't seem to use empty_ok parameter any more.
Here is a patch to solve the issue.
