Package: reportbug
Version: 6.4.4
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
Invoked reportbug from a Konsole (under KDE) on dosemu.
The gui came up (I'm not entirely sure if this is a reportbug or reportbug-ng
issue; both are installed,
but $ reportbug --version
reportbug 6.4.4
and which reportbug gets /usr/bin/reportbug which dpkg -S says is owned by
reportbug).
It said that I had non-standard configuration files and asked if I wanted to
attach them.
One of the options was "view files" (roughly--this is from memory).  I clicked
on that button.
The central display of the reportbug window then showed the file.
There were 2 buttons below it, but the only active one was quit.
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
I think the other button was continue.  I tried clicking on it but it had no
effect.
I clicked quit and restarted the report.
   * What was the outcome of this action?
Quit caused a quit.
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
I expected that after viewing the file contents I could return to the previous
menu.

Thanks.
Ross Boylan
