Hello release team,
for the next jessie point relase, I'd like to upload a new version
of the file package, in order to fix the bug described in
https://bugs.debian.org/798410
http://mx.gw.com/pipermail/file/2015/001777.html
Short version: The handling of file's --parameter command line option
is broken, the program segfaults upon every usage. Additionally,
--parameter has no effect when used with --files-from.
Triggering the first issue is as simple as running "file --parameter";
for the second one I have a no public reproducer so far but can provide
a file in private upon request.
Both issues have been fixed upstream recently, my proposed upload adds
the cherry-picked commits, two one-liners. The debdiff is attached.
Regards,
Christoph
