[Reportbug-maint] Bug#628968: [reportbug] reportbug crashes with assertion failed

[Brent S. Elmer Ph.D.]

Package: reportbug
Version: 5.1.1
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
reportbug won't let me submit a bug report.  It crashes with the following:

Gdk:ERROR:/build/buildd-gtk+2.0_2.24.4-3-i386-ouUeDk/gtk+2.0-2.24.4/gdk/gdkregion-generic.c:1114:miUnionNonO: assertion failed: (r->x1 < r->x2)
Aborted

I am trying to submit a bug report for python-gtk2.  I enter python-gtk2 for the package and it queries for previous bugs and displays them.
I click on Continue and it crashes.
