Package: abcde Version: 2.5.4-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch cddb-tool uses the -a flag to the mail command to add a header line. GNU mailutils does not have an -a flag, and heirloom-mailx uses it to attach a file instead, hence if either of those is installed as /usr/bin/mail, then cddb-tool will not work.
I have filed a bug about this upstream: https://code.google.com/p/abcde/issues/detail?id=111 For Debian, there’s a simple workaround: make abcde depend on bsd-mailx (as different packages providing “mailx” can be installed together), and change line 199 of cddb-tool to invoke “bsd-mailx” rather than “mail”. This fixes the bug (I’ve tested it!). -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers trusty-updates APT policy: (500, 'trusty-updates'), (500, 'trusty-security'), (500, 'trusty'), (90, 'utopic-updates'), (90, 'utopic-security'), (90, 'utopic') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.13.0-32-generic (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages abcde depends on: ii cd-discid 1.4-1 ii cdparanoia 3.10.2+debian-11 ii flac 1.3.0-2 ii icedax 9:1.1.11-2ubuntu3 ii lame 3.99.5+repack1-3ubuntu1 ii speex 1.2~rc1.1-1ubuntu1 ii vorbis-tools 1.4.0-1ubuntu3 ii wget 1.15-1ubuntu1 Versions of packages abcde recommends: ii bsd-mailx [mailx] 8.1.2-0.20131005cvs-1 ii heirloom-mailx [mailx] 12.5-2 ii libdigest-sha-perl 5.86-1 ii libmusicbrainz-discid-perl 0.03-3 ii libwebservice-musicbrainz-perl 0.93-1 ii perl [libdigest-sha-perl] 5.18.2-2ubuntu1 ii vorbis-tools 1.4.0-1ubuntu3 Versions of packages abcde suggests: ii atomicparsley 0.9.2~svn110-4 pn distmp3 <none> ii eject 2.1.5+deb1+cvs20081104-13.1 ii eyed3 0.6.18-1 ii id3 0.15-4 ii id3v2 0.1.12-2.1 ii mkcue 1-4 ii mp3gain 1.5.2-r2-6 ii normalize-audio 0.7.7-12 ii vorbisgain 0.37-2 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
