are two things that can happen here: user chooses the right place and the
report is successful, or the user selects the wrong one and the report
fails, like it happened to me yesterday, when abrt attempted a report on
audacity, but the installed version was from rpmfusion and (i assume) the
component was not found in bugzilla. it would've been good to have the
opportunity to add rpmfusion's bugzilla to the list, so that all the
debuginfo-install's were not in vain.

btw, is there a way to tell abrt which components are in
bugzilla.redhat.comso that the selection will be made from the start?
