[Reportbug-maint] Bug#649956: reportbug: spurious blank line after Package: line

Package: reportbug
Version: 6.3

Hi,

Reports sent using reportbug seem to have a blank line after the
Package: line nowadays.  This means the BTS does not notice what
version the bug was found with.  For example, when I prepared this
report with "reportbug -p reportbug", there was a blank line between
the Package: line and the Version: line.

On the other hand, it's kind of nice that it addresses bug#544485
(inflated severities for machine-specific bugs) as a side-effect. :)

Known problem?

Thanks for working to makes testers' lives more pleasant.
