Package: libarchive12 Version: 3.0.3-5 Severity: important I believe this bug is important because it blocks the use of libgxps-utils (e.g. xpstopdf conversion tool).
Complete description of the bug: "infinite loop on an xps zip file" https://code.google.com/p/libarchive/issues/detail?id=226#c5 Related merge that fixes the issue: https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/commit/f7cd53ca1eda0d08fc3b3876ed474321b9f70ac7 Namely, if you try to use libarchive12, it will keep reading the xps file indefinitely with 100% CPU. I have created a quilt patch (based on the merge above) for the debian package: https://gist.github.com/1974141 -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers oneiric-updates APT policy: (500, 'oneiric-updates'), (500, 'oneiric-security'), (500, 'oneiric'), (100, 'oneiric-backports') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-16-generic (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libarchive12 depends on: ii libacl1 2.2.51-3 Access control list shared library ii libattr1 1:2.4.46-3 Extended attribute shared library ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.5-6ubuntu1.11.10.1 high-quality block-sorting file co ii libc6 2.13-20ubuntu5 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii liblzma2 5.0.0-2 XZ-format compression library ii libnettle4 2.1-2 low level cryptographic library (s ii libxml2 2.7.8.dfsg-4ubuntu0.2 GNOME XML library ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3ubuntu3 compression library - runtime libarchive12 recommends no packages. libarchive12 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
