You most probably installed the result of your local effort via
dpkg -i *.deb
and reportbug is realising this.

That's correct.

Reportbug is reading the environment variable http_proxy. In any case
there is no need to query BTS since you made sure manually that there is
no ITP in BTS. I personally use `reportbug --no-query-bts` when filing
ITP bugs since wnpp has a lot of bugs and reportbug tries to show them
all in certain chuncks to let you check whether the bug is just filed.
In wnpp case it is way faster to check in a browser first.

I noticed your other mail.
Kind regards
Andreas.
