Package: apertium Version: 3.7.1-1 Severity: grave Tags: patch Justification: ships a binary package that's effectively unusable on an architecture User: ubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com Usertags: origin-ubuntu impish ubuntu-patch
Dear maintainers, The apertium-br-fr autopkgtests have been failing on s390x in Debian and Ubuntu. Although this is not considered a regression in Debian because there was never a test that passed, and therefore apertium-br-fr 0.5.1-1 is in Debian testing (and stable), in Ubuntu the tests were previously run with apertium-br-fr 0.5.0~r61325-4 which passed, so the new apertium-br-fr has been blocked from reaching an Ubuntu release. Digging into the failure, the apertium invocation of pcre is failing with the error: Error: Unknown error matching regexp (code -29) -29 in pcre maps to PCRE_ERROR_BADENDIANNESS. There is code in apertium to detect the host endianness and set the correct option to the pcre engine, but a missing header include means that the code in question doesn't know the host endianness, so doesn't set it. The attached patch fixes the omission, and when rebuilt with this flag, the apertium-br-fr autopkgtest now passes with both 0.5.1-1 and 0.5.0~r61325-4 versions of the data files. I'm marking this bug as grave because to my understanding this makes apertium completely unusable on s390x with any current data files - it's just that only 3 of the apertium dictionary packages have autopkgtests. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
