Package: reportbug
Version: 7.5.0
When I invoke `reportbug' without arguments from an ordinary shell
prompt it correctly opens the dialog.
I press Next and I am asked to enter the name of the package to report.
I answer: linux-image-4.17.0-1-amd64 and press Next.
It says Checking for new version at madison, then some very short message I
can't even read and then I am confronted with a message
