Package: mhonarc
Version: 2.6.19-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch upstream
Dear Maintainer,
Consider the attached UUCP-style mbox, where for each message the
byte-length of its body is indicated with a Content-Length: header.
The ‘-conlen’ [0] flag is meant to make MHonArc read the correct body
length and remove the need for unescaping lines starting with “From: ”.
This works well except when it's the *last* line that starts with
“From: ”.
$ mhonarc -conlen -outdir /tmp/out - </tmp/test.mbox
This is MHonArc v2.6.19+, Perl 5.030003 linux

/tmp/out/msg00002.html:<!--X-Message-Id: [email protected] -->
That's because MHonArc slurps “bogus” lines after after the message with
# Slurp up bogus data if required (should I do this?)
while (!/$FROM/o && !eof($handle)) {
$_ = <$handle>;
}
where $_ is initially set to the last body line… (By that loop is
AFAICT required to read “\nFrom …\n”.) The fix is use a post condition
instead:
$ mhonarc -conlen -outdir /tmp/out - </tmp/test.mbox
