Package: rmagic
Version: 2.21-5
With Perl5 v26, rmagic no longer compiles (as in, perl -c /usr/bin/rmagic
returns errors)
Line 322 is:
$statistics{Log_File} =~ s/\${infile}/$infile/gi;
But unescaped angle braces are no longer deprecated in Perl5 v26, but simply
fail to compile
Accordingly, line 322 should be:
$statistics{Log_File} =~ s/\$\{infile\}/$infile/gi;
This problem is specific to the perl version (Perl5 v26 is the default in
Ubuntu 18.04, which I'm using) and is not OS or hardware dependent.
Many thanks,
