Package: devscripts Version: 2.10.45 Severity: minor Hi, today I spotted a watchfile being reported as invalid on PET, while uscan processed it fine. I think this behaviour is incompatible with what is documented (and PET watchfile processor is based mostly on the documentation), and I also think that the documented behaviour is saner.
This is the offending line: opts=uversionmangle="s/^\d\.\d$/$&00/;s/^\d\.\d\d0$/$&0" \ http://search.cpan.org/dist/Term-Size/ \ ..*/Term-Size-v?(\d[\d_.]+)\.(?:tar(?:\.gz|\.bz2)?|tgz|zip) As you can see, the quotes were intended to be put before 'uversionmangle', and PET follows the documentation: the code is split by semicolons and then executed. So it tries and fails to execute this code: "s/^\d\.\d$/$&00/; The log shows it clearly: Feb 14 19:43:32 fetchdata[17379]: Mangle option: "s/^\d\.\d$/$&00/;s/^\d\.\d\d0$/$&0" Feb 14 19:43:32 fetchdata[17379]: Executing '$mangled[-1] =~ "s/^\d\.\d$/$&00/' Feb 14 19:43:32 fetchdata[17379]: Invalid watchfile: Can't find string terminator '"' anywhere before EOF at (eval 117) line 1. At the same time, uscan removes the quotes before the code, which I understand is not documented behaviour. -- Package-specific info: --- /etc/devscripts.conf --- --- ~/.devscripts --- DEBSIGN_KEYID=575D0A76 DEBUILD_DPKG_BUILDPACKAGE_OPTS="-ICVS -I.svn" DEBUILD_LINTIAN=yes DEBUILD_LINDA=no USCAN_VERBOSE=yes DEBCHANGE_RELEASE_HEURISTIC=changelog -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686-bigmem (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages devscripts depends on: ii dpkg-dev 1.14.24 Debian package development tools ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii perl 5.10.0-19 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction Versions of packages devscripts recommends: ii at 3.1.10.2 Delayed job execution and batch pr ii bsd-mailx [mailx] 8.1.2-0.20081101cvs-2 A simple mail user agent ii cvs 1:1.12.13-12 Concurrent Versions System ii dctrl-tools 2.13.1 Command-line tools to process Debi ii debian-keyring 2009.01.18 GnuPG (and obsolete PGP) keys of D ii debian-maintainers 1.52 GPG keys of Debian maintainers ii dput 0.9.2.37 Debian package upload tool ii epiphany-gecko [ww 2.22.3-9 Intuitive GNOME web browser - Geck ii equivs 2.0.7-0.1 Circumvent Debian package dependen ii fakeroot 1.12.1 Gives a fake root environment ii git-core 1:1.5.6.5-2 fast, scalable, distributed revisi ii gnupg 1.4.9-3 GNU privacy guard - a free PGP rep ii iceweasel [www-bro 3.0.5-1 lightweight web browser based on M ii libauthen-sasl-per 2.12-1 Authen::SASL - SASL Authentication ii libcrypt-ssleay-pe 0.57-1+b1 Support for https protocol in LWP ii libparse-debcontro 2.005-2 Easy OO parsing of Debian control- ii libsoap-lite-perl 0.710.08-2 Client and server side SOAP implem ii libterm-size-perl 0.2-4+b1 Perl extension for retrieving term ii libtimedate-perl 1.1600-9 Time and date functions for Perl ii liburi-perl 1.37+dfsg-1 Manipulates and accesses URI strin ii libwww-perl 5.820-1 WWW client/server library for Perl ii libyaml-syck-perl 1.05-1 Fast, lightweight YAML loader and ii lintian 2.2.0 Debian package checker ii lsb-release 3.2-20 Linux Standard Base version report ii lynx-cur [www-brow 2.8.7dev12-2 Text-mode WWW Browser with NLS sup ii mailx 1:20081101-2 Transitional package for mailx ren ii man-db 2.5.2-4 on-line manual pager ii openssh-client [ss 1:5.1p1-5 secure shell client, an rlogin/rsh ii patch 2.5.9-5 Apply a diff file to an original ii patchutils 0.3.1-1 Utilities to work with patches ii strace 4.5.17+cvs080723-2 A system call tracer ii subversion 1.5.1dfsg1-2 Advanced version control system ii unzip 5.52-12 De-archiver for .zip files ii wdiff 0.5-18 Compares two files word by word ii wget 1.11.4-2 retrieves files from the web Versions of packages devscripts suggests: ii build-essential 11.4 Informational list of build-essent pn cvs-buildpackage <none> (no description available) pn devscripts-el <none> (no description available) pn gnuplot <none> (no description available) pn libfile-desktopentry-perl <none> (no description available) pn libnet-smtp-ssl-perl <none> (no description available) pn mutt <none> (no description available) ii svn-buildpackage 0.6.23 helper programs to maintain Debian -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
