Package: libcompress-zlib-perl
Version: 2.005-1
Severity: serious
--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
After the upgrade to version 2.005-1 debmirror decided to delete my
whole debian mirror. And as i didn't pay attention during debmirror
updates this is really annoying.
The corresponding debmirror code is here:
851 my $gunzf = gzopen($file, "rb") or die "$file: $!";
852 my $line;
853 my $res;
854 my $loop = 1;
855 while ($loop) {
856 my $buf = "";
857 while(($res = $gunzf->gzreadline($line) > 0)
858 && !($line =~ /^$/)) {
859 $buf = $buf . $line;
860 }
861 if ($res <= 0) { # <-------- THIS IS ALWAYS TRUE AFTER THE UPGRADE
862 $loop = 0;
863 next;
864 }
I debuged it with print statements and found out the the above marked if
statement is alwasy true after the upgrade and thats why the code further down
the while statement is never reached.
I'm not sure if this is actually a problem in debmirror or in
libcompress-zlib-perl,
but as it worked before the upgrade it seems naturally to report the bug here.
Downgrading the packet fixed my problem. But now to downloading the mirror :-(
