bundledoc is broken in ubuntu 18.04 ( due to perl 5.26 change regarding {)
Hello,
warning
A bit of a warning first: I am not a coder, and I apologize in advance
if this email does not conform to best practice in bug reporting / patch
proposing.
I think I found a bug (two?) in bundledoc and somehow fixed it (them).
perl is not a language I really master, so my fix is most probably ugly.
/warning
It seems that bundledoc (part of texlive-extra-utils) is broken in
Ubuntu 18.04 due to perl 5.26 deprecating the use of unescaped left
brace in regexpr.
Running /usr/bin/bundledoc on any trivial example results in the
following error:
bundledoc --config=texlive-unix.cfg --verbose --localonly --exclude=.fd
--exclude=.cfg --include="*.bib" --manifest="" hello.dep
BDBASE = '/tmp/bundledoc/hello'
Unescaped left brace in regex is illegal here in regex; marked by <--
HERE in m/^\s*\*{ <-- HERE ([^}]*)}\s*{([^}]*)}\s*{([^}]*)}\s*$/ at
/data/bundledoc line 141, line 1.
This error can be fixed by replacing line 136:
my $braced = "{([^\}]*)}"; # Regular expression for a braced name
with
my $braced = "\\{([^\}]*)}"; # Regular expression for a braced name
Another issue seems to be related to temp file/folder creation.
It can be fixed by adding:
use File::Temp qw/ :POSIX /;
at the beginning of the file.
I tried to generate a patch to fix bundledoc (see attachment).
Do not hesitate to contact me if clarifications are needed.
Antoine

Thunderbird 68.1.2 OAUth2 issue - unable to add google account
Greetings, There seems to be an issue with every version of Thunderbird prior 68.2.1, where you can't add gmail account using OAuth2. When adding an account the `web browser` login prompt comes up to enter google credentials and once I click allow Thunderbird, the `web browser` window disappears and thunderbird account wizards says: "Unable to login at server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password." I've noticed the issue in Ubuntu 19.10 (Thunderbird 68.1.2) but was able to replicate it in Ubuntu 18.04 as well. The issue has been fixed in version 68.2.1: https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/68.2.1/releasenotes/ I'm new to Ubuntu and not entirely sure where I should report this issue. I would appreciate if someone can reproduce the issue and help include the patched version in the official repository. -- Best regards, Mariusz -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss

So this seems to be a pure Ubuntu problem.
