Package: pine Version: 4.64-1 Severity: normal
Some background info: I hit this problem after 2 failed attempts to submit some cypress_m8 driver patches to the linux-usb-devel mailing list. The failure was due to the patches being subtlely whitespace-mangled by pine, which was due to pine sending with flowed text turned on. When flowed-text is not disabled (it's on by default), pine adds the attribute format=flowed to the Content-Type header and then proceeds to massage the text to adhere to some RFC standards about flowed text. The pine docs state that flowed-text on sent messages can be disabled on a per-message basis by hitting ^V after ^X but before confirming the send - and that is when I hit this bug. What really happened is that while the format=flowed attribute went away, the message _still_ got mangled. (A patch submission mangled in this way by pine still "looks" normal, but due to pine's prepending extraneous whitespace on various lines of text, the patch is wrecked.) -Mike -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (420, 'testing'), (90, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.26-apm-isely1 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages pine depends on: ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22sarge3 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libldap2 2.1.30-8 OpenLDAP libraries ii libncurses5 5.4-4 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libssl0.9.7 0.9.7e-3sarge1 SSL shared libraries ii mime-support 3.28-1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
