file package maintainer here ...
Dear maintainer,
the next version 5.47 of the file package is currently in experimental,
and as I've learned via the pseudo excuses¹, this introduces a regression
in your (autopkg)test.
Root cause: Lintian expects a perticular output from file(1) in the
cruft-wasm test that is no longer given.
-WebAssembly (wasm) binary module version 0x1 (MVP)
+WebAssembly (wasm) binary version 0x1 (MVP module)
If my anaylsis is correct, lib/Lintian/Check/Files/SourceMissing.pm:66
needs an according update. Please use the version of file in
experimental to check.
The following approach seems sensible to me: Prepare an updated lintian,
with a versioned dependency on file/libmagic 1:5.47. Then wait until I
upload file to unstable, planned for next weekend, then upload the new
lintian version. Let me know if you need more time or have other ideas
about this.
Kind regards,
Christoph
