<p style="-qt-paragraph-type:empty; margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px; -qt-user-state:0;"><br></p>Attached is a patch for reportbug (querybts) to make it run on Windows.<br>
There are 2 modules, pwd and tempfile, which are platform dependent, not available on Windows. These 2 modules are only needed for the reportbug tool and are not required for a query to the BTS.<br>

Another option could be to separate platform specific modules to a separate file.<br>

I have an application, pypt-offline, an offline package manager for Debian. One of the core features for it is to be able to download bug reports and make it available offline.<br>
I'd like to use reportbug for my app's bug fetch requirement because reportbug is the most used bts tool in Debian and thus the best maintained. :-)<br>
