[Reportbug-maint] Bug#801347: reportbug/querybts display mime encoded text instead of something humans parse

Package: reportbug
Version: 6.6.5
Severity: normal


Occasionally when I view bugs via reportbug or with querybts directly or via 
apt-listbugs I get a mime encoded blob. This is a new development that I 
have not seen before. 


RePro Steps:

$ querybts 773321

<<initial report displayed and readable>>
<<press q>>
What do you want to do now? [N|x|o|r|b|e|q|?]? 
<<press N for more information>>

Followup 1 - must depend on the same irssi version it was built against
