[Reportbug-maint] Bug#849243: reportbug: TypeError: * wants int

[Boyuan Yang]

Package: reportbug
Version: 7.1.1
Severity: grave

Hello,

Reportbug crashed when I was trying to report a bug, even if I am using text 
UI. ( I have to use email to report it :-/ ).

The terminal output is as follow:

% reportbug --ui=text

How would you rate the severity of this problem or report?

1 critical        makes unrelated software on the system (or the whole
                  system) break, or causes serious data loss, or
                  introduces a security hole on systems where you
                  install the package.
2 grave           makes the package in question unusable by most or
                  all users, or causes data loss, or introduces a
                  security hole allowing access to the accounts of
                  users who use the package.
3 serious         is a severe violation of Debian policy (that is, the
                  problem is a violation of a 'must' or 'required'
                  directive); may or may not affect the usability of
                  the package. Note that non-severe policy violations
                  may be 'normal,' 'minor,' or 'wishlist' bugs.
                  (Package maintainers may also designate other bugs
                  as 'serious' and thus release-critical; however, end
                  users should not do so.). For the canonical list of
                  issues worthing a serious severity you can refer to
                  this webpage:
                  http://release.debian.org/testing/rc_policy.txt .
4 important       a bug which has a major effect on the usability of a
                  package, without rendering it completely unusable to
                  everyone.
5 does-not-build  a bug that stops the package from being built from
                  source. (This is a 'virtual severity'.)
6 normal          a bug that does not undermine the usability of the
                  whole package; for example, a problem with a
                  particular option or menu item.
7 minor           things like spelling mistakes and other minor
                  cosmetic errors that do not affect the core
                  functionality of the package.
8 wishlist        suggestions and requests for new features.
