Package: reportbug
Version: 3.39
Followup-For: Bug #429824

I have the same problem, here is how to reproduce it:

    aptitude install dlocate
    aptitude purge angband-doc
    update-dlocatedb
    aptitude install angband-doc
    reportbug /usr/share/doc-base/angband-doc

Reportbug loops forever trying to find the file in the dlocate
database, because the dlocate database is out of date.  I agree that
falling back on using dpkg -S sounds like a good idea.
