Package: reportbug

Version: 6.3
Severity: normal

- Start "reportbug (or querybts) screen"
- Advance in bug list until you get to the "Bugs with severity
  wishlist". In this section, entering the list number leads to
  the wrong bug report being selected, e. g.

---------- snip -----------

  Entering "84" at the prompt should show bug report #170811, but
  instead, it shows #37475 (list index 92).

  Entering "85" at the prompt should show bug report #176626, but
  instead, it shows #63299 (list index 116).


I was so sure that this bug occurred in an older version of reportbug,
but couldn't find it ...
