Package: html2text Version: 2.4.0-1 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
I got recently some html-only e-mails, coming from commercial senders which could not be viewed with mutt. I had to kill html2text in order to unfreeze mutt. Replacing /usr/bin/html2text by a symlink to /usr/bin/html2markdown gave an instant workaround, the same e-mails were displaied instantly in text format. /usr/bin/html2markdown is provided by the package python3-html2text. I tried to simplify the HTML files in order to pinpoint the failure, without success. If you want I can send some samples which could not be converted to text with html2text. Their common feature is the abuse of tables to insert elements into the page, and a very bad syntax -- System Information: Debian Release: forky/sid APT prefers stable APT policy: (900, 'stable'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'testing'), (50, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.17.9+deb14-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages html2text depends on: ii libc6 2.41-12 ii libgcc-s1 15.2.0-9 ii libstdc++6 15.2.0-9 html2text recommends no packages.
