[Reportbug-maint] Bug#564704: reportbug: option --draftpath not always honored

[Vincent Lefevre]

Package: reportbug
Version: 4.10
Severity: normal

The --draftpath option is not always honored. When I tried it with no
mua, it was honored, but when I added "mua mutt" to my .reportbugrc,
I got this:

ypig:~> /usr/bin/reportbug --draftpath=/home/vlefevre/.reportbug
[...]
Spawning mutt...
Mutt users should be aware it is mandatory to edit the draft before sending.
Report has not been sent yet; what do you want to do now? [E|q|?]? q
Original write failed, wrote bug report to /tmp/reportbug-general-20100111-10644-Ml3MRL

i.e. the draft is stored under /tmp instead of the directory
specified by --draftpath.
