In the future we should be moving to throw exception objects instead, which should make it possible to bubble up these messages in a more ergonomic way. --- scripts/Dpkg/Control/FieldsCore.pm | 14 ++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/scripts/Dpkg/Control/FieldsCore.pm b/scripts/Dpkg/Control/FieldsCore.pm index e20f3ca91..5fc747499 100644 --- a/scripts/Dpkg/Control/FieldsCore.pm +++ b/scripts/Dpkg/Control/FieldsCore.pm @@ -1214,7 +1214,12 @@ sub field_parse_maintainer($ctrl) } require Dpkg::Email::Address; - return Dpkg::Email::Address->new($maint); + eval { + return Dpkg::Email::Address->new($maint); + } or do { + error(g_('cannot parse %s field value "%s"'), + 'Maintainer', $maint); + }; } =item $email_list = field_parse_uploaders($ctrl) @@ -1230,7 +1235,12 @@ sub field_parse_uploaders($ctrl) my $uploaders = $ctrl->{'Uploaders'}; require Dpkg::Email::AddressList; - return Dpkg::Email::AddressList->new($uploaders); + eval { + return Dpkg::Email::AddressList->new($uploaders); + } or do { + error(g_('cannot parse %s field value "%s"'), + 'Uploaders', $uploaders); + }; } =item ($source, $version) = field_parse_binary_source($ctrl) -- Dpkg.Org's dpkg
