Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.13.10
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
While creating a unit testing suite for dpkg-dev I found a bug in
parsedep(): Due to some unclean variable definitions (not detected
since the script doesn't use "use strict" *shudder*) sometimes it
generates wrong lists of architecture requirements.
When using $reduce_arch the effect is probably not visible which
might explain the error wasn't found earlier.
Example:
not ok 84 - showdep(parsedep(foo, bar, baz [i386 ia64],1),1) == foo, bar, baz
[i386 ia64]
# Failed test (t/scripts_controllib.t at line 244)
# got: 'foo [i386 ia64], bar [i386 ia64], baz [i386 ia64]'
# expected: 'foo, bar, baz [i386 ia64]'
# $VAR1 = [
# [
# [
# 'foo',
# undef,
# undef,
# [
# 'i386',
# 'ia64'
# ]
# ]
# ],
# [
# [
# 'bar',
# undef,
# undef,
# $VAR1->[0][0][3]
# ]
# ],
# [
# [
# 'baz',
# undef,
# undef,
# $VAR1->[0][0][3]
# ]
# ]
# ];
