Title:
netpbm: "anytopnm" doesn't recognize some file types
Status in netpbm-free package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
/usr/bin/anytopnm uses the output of "file" to recognize the image format of
the input file.
Apparently the output of "file" has changed, and therefore it is no longer
correctly recognized by anytopnm. Example:
$ file /tmp/x.ppm
/tmp/x.ppm: Netpbm image data, size = 5100 x 6600, rawbits, pixmap
However, /usr/bin/anytopnm (line 64) looks for the strings *PBM* |
*PGM* | *PPM* )
For example:
$ cat /tmp/x.ppm | anytopnm
/usr/bin/anytopnm: unknown file type: Netpbm image data, size = 5100 x 6600,
rawbits, pixmap
Suggested fix: update /usr/bin/anytopnm to recognize the string
"Netpbm" in addition to PBM, PGM, PPM.
