Bug#1029659: AttributeError: module 'inspect' has no attribute 'getargspec'. Did you mean: 'getargs'?

[Kingsley G. Morse Jr.]

Package: python3-reportbug
Version: 11.6.0
Severity: important

Thank you very much for maintaining Debian's
python3-reportbug package.

I love the ideal of freely cooperating.

I happened to notice version 11.5.1 crashed with

I'm happy to report I seem to have fixed it by
upgrading Debian's python3-pysimplesoap package
from version

1.16.2-3

to

1.16.2-5


Humble suggestion:

Please consider updating python3-reportbug to
depend on at least version 1.16.2-5 of
python3-pysimplesoap.

Kind regards,
Kingsley
