 How would you rate the severity of this problem or report?
 
 1 critical        makes unrelated software on the system (or the whole system)
                   break, or causes serious data loss, or introduces a security
                   hole on systems where you install the package.
 2 grave           makes the package in question unusable by most or all users,
                   or causes data loss, or introduces a security hole allowing
                   access to the accounts of users who use the package.
 3 serious         is a severe violation of Debian policy (that is, the problem
                   is a violation of a 'must' or 'required' directive); may or
                   may not affect the usability of the package. Note that non-
                   severe policy violations may be 'normal,' 'minor,' or
                   'wishlist' bugs. (Package maintainers may also designate
                   other bugs as 'serious' and thus release-critical; however,
                   end users should not do so.)
 4 important       a bug which has a major effect on the usability of a package,
                   without rendering it completely unusable to everyone.
 5 does-not-build  a bug that stops the package from being built from source.
                   (This is a 'virtual severity'.)
 6 normal          a bug that does not undermine the usability of the whole
                   package; for example, a problem with a particular option or
                   menu item.
 7 minor           things like spelling mistakes and other minor cosmetic errors
                   that do not affect the core functionality of the package.
 8 wishlist        suggestions and requests for new features.
 
 Please select a severity level: [normal]
