[Reportbug-maint] Bug#575450: reportbug: Doesn't exit with empty subject

Package: reportbug
Version: 4.11
Severity: normal

Hi!

According to the message written to the screen by reportbug, an empty subject
should cause reportbug to exit. However, what happens is that reportbug just
repeats the message and prompts once more for a subject.

Best regards
Torquil Sørensen
