Hello Sebastien,
thanks for your bug report.

However, you seem to experience the same exact issue that has already
been reported twice yesterday:
http://bugs.debian.org/733140
http://bugs.debian.org/733149

Those two bug reports were reassigned to ruby-locale and merged with
http://bugs.debian.org/733150
which was later closed.

I am reassigning and merging this bug report too.
As a consequence, this report will be closed.

You should be able to re-enable apt-listbugs, after upgrading
ruby-gettext to version 3.0.3-1

Bye.
