Hello Andreas,

I acknowledge this problem, but I don't think the proposed solution is
acceptable, at least it would break the tabular report :) or at least
we should try to output a tabular "wrapped" list, where fields with
values longer than our column are wrapped.

Note to self: the problem is in reportbug/utils.py, in the method
get_dependency_info
