Package: licensecheck
Version: 3.3.5-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer,
scan-copyrights is unable to create the copyright file when using texlive-extra
sources
(https://deb.debian.org/debian/pool/main/t/texlive-extra/texlive-extra_2020.20210202-3.dsc).
The below program crashes,
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import sh
scan_copyrights = sh.Command('scan-copyrights')
def main():
try:
scan_copyrights()
except sh.ErrorReturnCode as e:
print("An error occurred:", e.stderr, file=sys.stderr)
sys.exit(1)
except Exception as e:
print("An unknown error occurred:", e, file=sys.stderr)
sys.exit(1)
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
Output:
raise exc
sh.ErrorReturnCode_255:
RAN: /usr/bin/scan-copyrights
It appears that the following files may be causing the issue:
./texmf-dist/fonts/type1/public/baskervillef/BaskervilleF-Bold.pfb
./texmf-dist/fonts/type1/public/baskervillef/BaskervilleF-BoldItalic.pfb
./texmf-dist/tex/latex/exp-testopt/exp-testopt.sty
Removing these files prevents the program from crashing, but individual runs of
licensecheck on
these files do not result in any issues. This issue has been observed with
libconfig-model-dpkg-perl versions 2.143 and 2.165,
licensecheck version 3.1.1-2 and 3.3.5-1. This issue is not consistently
reproducible.
scan-copyrights crashes because the output from licensecheck looks invalid.
licensecheck tries to parse the binary file (pfb) and returns invalid data.
As per the comment in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=828941,
it is mentioned,
For use right now, I recommend to combine licensecheck with helper
scripts part of cdbs (but *not* build-depend on or otherwise use cdbs).
For examples of using those helper scripts to pre-parse some binary
files and skip select other ones, while not accidentally silencing later
introduced unknown types of files, see file debian/copyright-check in
the source code of ghostscript (or pandoc or valentina), and the files
/usr/lib/cdbs/license-miner and /usr/lib/cdbs/licensecheck2dep5 in
package cdbs.
Please let me know if this recommendation can be followed or if there are any
other fixes for this issue.
Thank you.
Regards,
Vignesh

[ Dominique Dumont ]
* This new release features a major rewrite of Copyright Scanner and
Copyright update. As a result, the scanner algorithm was changed and
you may observe slightly different results in debian/copyright file.
(Closes: 1033406)
* Dropped "check" parameter from copyright-scan-patterns.yml file. Now all
files are parsed, excepts binary files. You still may specify file patterns
to exclude some files in debian/copyright-scan-patterns.yml.
* control:
* remove dependency on libdata-compare-perl
* add dependency on libsoftware-copyright-perl
* add build dependency on libtest-synopsis-expectation-perl
