Paul and John,

I have tested src:package bug sumission today and it is working 
normally. So closing as fixed, possibly with the upgrade to debbugs 
2.6.0.

Thanks.

Mark

Package: reportbug
Version: 7.1.6+devuan2.1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

When filing a recent bug against network-manager, reportbug found a list
of possible packages, including "network-manager". In the bug report's
pseudo-header, reportbug put "Source: network-manager", not "Package:
network-manager".

After filling out the rest of the bug report, no errors were noted by
reportbug prior to sending the bug report.  About 20 minutes later, I
received an email saying:

> Your message didn't have a Package: line at the start (in the
> pseudo-header following the real mail header), or didn't have a
> pseudo-header at all.
> 
> This makes it much harder for us to categorise and deal with your
> problem report. Please _resubmit_ your report to [email protected]
> and tell us which package the report is on. For help, check out
> http://bugs.devuan.org//Reporting.html.

Either reportbug should check for this omission or the Devuan bug
tracker should accept Source: headers as a substitute.
