--- Begin Message ---Package: quilt Version: 0.67+really0.67-1 Severity: important Tags: fixed-upstream patch The /usr/share/quilt/scripts/patchfns script contains a gawkism and does not work correctly with either mawk or original-awk. In both cases "quilt refresh" corrupts existing patches, but the symptoms are quite different: - With awk=original-awk the refreshed patch is appended after the original one instead of replacing it, and applying the refreshed patch later fails. - With awk=mawk there is a complaint from mawk: ,---- | awk: line 21: regular expression compile failed (syntax error ^* or ^+) | ^+++[ \t][^ \t] `---- This time there is no duplication of the patch, but the complete patch header is removed, causing information loss. :-( Fortunately the problem had already been reported upstream and fixed in commit ce9c68abb7c ("patchfns: Compatibility fix for BSD awk"), I have attached the patch for your convenience and already tested it successfully with both mawk and original-awk. :-) -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (101, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64)From ce9c68abb7cee0b4fb0d5a7ff7048d0ab3b726f8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jean Delvare <[email protected]> Date: Thu, 23 Jun 2022 14:36:58 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 1/1] patchfns: Compatibility fix for BSD awk "+" needs to be quoted to be considered as a literal "+" by BSD awk. Without this fix, patch_header() fails to find the beginning of the changes and treats the whole patch as a header, subsequently causing "quilt refresh" to append the refreshed patch after the original one instead of replacing it. Bug reported and fix suggested by Dominic Evans.
