I am running apt-listbugs 0.0.69 on testing. In my case it doesn't
seem to be requesting info from the server, or the server is just
ignoring the request. I just sits there and, after about a minute,
gives the "Retry downloading bug information?[Y/n]?" query. To
complete the installation just answer n and n. I do not see the
"syntax error" you show.
Small complaint. The "Retrieving bug reports... 0%" replaced the,
IMHO, the more informative "Retrieving bug reports... 0% [0/3]" for
some reason. On dialup I really miss the [0/x]. The way it is now, I
have to keep looking at the modem to see if it's working, or not.
Lately it hasn't been.
