Package: reportbug
Version: 7.1.2

I'm running Debian Stretch amd64 installed today.

running reportbug, I get the following error:

Maintainer for linux-image-4.8.0-2-amd64 is 'Debian Kernel Team
<debian-kernel at lists.debian.org>'.
Looking up dependencies of linux-image-4.8.0-2-amd64...

    return codecs.ascii_decode(input, self.errors)[0]
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position
1178: ordinal not in range(128)

Please advise.

I want to report a bug for the intel kms driver kernel (or x.org intel
driver?). My Lenovo ThinkPad X201i (Intel IronLake video chipset) gets
the video frozen constantly (and kernel log with[1]). This did not
happen in Jessie.

[1] [drm:ironlake_irq_handler [i915]] *ERROR* CPU pipe A FIFO underrun
[drm:ironlake_irq_handler [i915]] *ERROR* PCH transcoder A FIFO underrun


Thanks,
