Severity: normal

$ reportbug gcc-4.7-base
Detected character set: UTF-8
Please change your locale if this is incorrect.

Using 'Andreas Beckmann <debian at abeckmann.de>' as your from address.
Getting status for gcc-4.7-base...
Which of the following packages is the bug in?

1 lib32gomp1      GCC OpenMP (GOMP) support library (32bit)
2 lib32gomp1-dbg  GCC OpenMP (GOMP) support library (32 bit debug symbols)
3 lib64gomp1      GCC OpenMP (GOMP) support library (64bit)
4 lib64gomp1-dbg  GCC OpenMP (GOMP) support library (64bit debug symbols)
5 libgomp1        GCC OpenMP (GOMP) support library
6 libgomp1-dbg    GCC OpenMP (GOMP) support library (debug symbols)
7 gcc-4.7-base    Source package

Select one of these packages: 7
Please enter the version of the package this report applies to (blank OK)
> 4.7.2-4
Will send report to Debian (per lsb_release).
Querying Debian BTS for reports on gcc-4.7-base (source)...
No bug reports found.

Briefly describe the problem (max. 100 characters allowed). This will be the bug email subject, so keep the summary as concise as possible, for example: "fails to send email" or "does not start
with -q option specified" (enter Ctrl+c to exit reportbug without reporting a bug).
> some subject
Rewriting subject to 'gcc-4.7-base: some subject'

[...]

and thereafter $EDITOR opens whith these pseudo-headers:

Subject: gcc-4.7-base: some subject
Source: gcc-4.7-base
Version: 4.7.2-4
Severity: normal

which does not look right - the source package would be gcc-4.7 ...
