[Andreas Klöckner]

Package: reportbug
Version: 5.0
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
I consistently get this traceback when I hit 'New bug' in the urwid
interface. (e.g. 'reportbug paraview')

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 2127, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 1052, in main
    return iface.user_interface()
  File "/usr/bin/reportbug", line 1699, in user_interface
    utils.get_dependency_info(package, suggests, "suggests"))
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/reportbug/utils.py", line 627, in 
get_dependency_info
    for info in get_package_info(dependencies):
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/reportbug/utils.py", line 583, in 
get_package_info
    vers = versob.search(p).group('vers')
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'
