reportbug problem



Dear All,

I intend to package the Larbin package. So I used the reportbug
program. I set EDITOR=emacsclient and run reportbug wnpp

I filled (under emacs) the "bug report" 

################################################################
Subject: volunteering to package Larbin (web crawler)
Followup-For: Bug #92959
Package: wnpp
Version: unavailable; reported 2002-09-15
* Package name    : larbin
  Version         : x.y.z
  Upstream Author : Name <somebody@some.org>
* URL             : http://www.some.org/
* License         : (GPL, LGPL, BSD, MIT/X, etc.)
  Description     : Larbin is an efficient web crawler (not an indexer)

(Include the long description here.)

Larbin is a web crawler (also called (web) robot, spider,
scooter...). It is intended to fetch a large number of web pages to
fill the database of a search engine. With a network fast enough,
Larbin should be able to fetch more than 100 millions pages on a
standard PC.

Larbin is (just) a web crawler, NOT an indexer. You have to write some
code yourself in order to save pages or index them in a database.

Larbin was initially developped for the XYLEME project in the VERSO
team at INRIA. The goal of Larbin was to go and fetch xml pages on the
web to fill the database of an xml-oriented search engine. Thanks to
its origins, Larbin is very generalistic (and easy to customize).

Of course I tried to reportbug reportbug but I've got the same error.

Any comments or clues - FWIW, my python is python2.2 (and I am running
debian/unstable)
