[Reportbug-maint] Bug#801545: reportbug picks debian-backports submission address inappropriately

[Dominic Hargreaves]

Package: reportbug
Version: 6.6.3
Severity: normal

When filing # I had to manually save a draft and send the message via
mutt to fix the incorrect submission address of
debian-backports at lists.debian.org.

The bug appears both in the version of libreoffice in stable and
in backports.

I manually corrected the Version: to reflect that the bug was
present in stable, but it appears that reportbug either picked this
address based on the version of the installed package, or is picking
up the bpo versions from the 'installed packages' section. Either way,
it's unhelpful behaviour.

Thanks for maintaining reportbug and let me know if you need any more
infomation to fix this.

Cheers,
Dominic.
