Hi Ed,
I had the same Problem like you[1],and I think that's a bug in the
ubuntu bugsystem, also if the developers are noticed, that
universe/multiverse etc. are not supported, and therefor one should
file a bug report in malone [2], the right place to report bugs for
packages that are managed/maintained by the MOTU (masters of the
universe).[3]
It took me some time to find the places under ubuntu.com where I could
get the informations I need.[4]
Unfortunately I'm not able to log into the wiki, because of a utf-8 bug,
I think. I'm not using special characters.
The ubuntu developer are working on a new bugsystem, to get rid of these
unintentional behaviour and a few other issues.[5]
Nevertheless I think that it *is* a bug in reportbug for ubuntu, because
it should at least give the user the information, that it's not the
right tool to report bugs in ubuntu against packages of universe.
I also don't know if reportbug works with packages of main or contrib.
So try to report the bug in malone via launchpad:
https://launchpad.ubuntu.com/malone/bugs/+package/+login
Kind regards
Gerhard
