Source: ruby-dbf
Version: 4.3.2-1
Severity: serious
Justification: FTBFS
Tags: ftbfs patch
User: [email protected]
Usertags: ruby3.3
I've been testing a patch to fix this bug so that CI tests can run
successfully again and make it reproducible again. The patch is quite
simple and just adds "Encoding.default_external = "UTF-8"" to set a
unicode that was set in "failure/Error:
expect(record.name.encode('UTF-8').unpack1('H4')).to eq 'd0b0'".
