Package: reportbug
Version: 4.6
Severity: normal
If you set "ui" to "gtk2" in the .reportbug, then
reportbug --template reportbug
will pop up a (rather useless) window (if you are in X) or spew a bunch
of error messages (if you are at console).
This breaks interaction with other packages, e.g., debian-el, which want
to capture stdout from reportbug.
Thus, with --template, we should ignore the user-interface setting from
the rc file and simply print to stdout.
