Package: libcompress-bzip2-perl
Version: 2.09-1
Severity: serious
When using the Compress::Bzip2 Perl module to compress an empty file, the
resulting compressed file becomes corrupted. The bzip2 program however
compresses them just fine.
Although I know compressing an empty file won't save much space, there is a
program I'm working on called debpool which sometimes would need to compress
empty files anyway (like the Packages/Sources files for distributions that
have no packages uploaded yet).
I've attached a simple script that could be used to replicate the problem.
I've also attached a script that compresses a file into gzip format using the
Compress::Zlib module, just as a comparison, and to show it works with
Compress::Zlib.
