Subject: textutils: md5sum incorrectly handles directories
From: "Russell Howe" <rhowe@wiss.co.uk>

Package: textutils
Version: 2.1-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
If md5sum is called with a directory as an argument, something like the
following happens:
[root@doufu] / # md5sum home
error processing home: failed in buffer_read(fd): mdfile: Is a directory
(null) home
Sensible enough, although I don't think home should really be listed at
all.
If you call it with a directory and a file as an argument however:
[root@doufu] / # md5sum usr modules.tar home
error processing usr: failed in buffer_read(fd): mdfile: Is a directory
(null) usr
70da01200b94ffe2cedd18324636a1af modules.tar
error processing home: failed in buffer_read(fd): mdfile: Is a directory
70da01200b94ffe2cedd18324636a1af home
An MD5sum is displayed for the second directory, and it is the same as
that for the preceding file.
Directories should not produce an md5sum, and should either not be
listed or always have (null) or even better <directory> listed as their
MD5sum.

Changes:
dpkg (1.10.5) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Fix segfault in md5sum if the file being checked doesn't exist.
Closes: #154503.
* Fix extraction of md5sum in dpkg-scanpackages. Closes: #153769.
* Handle directories better in md5sum. Closes: #157453.
* Fix read past buffer in lib/nfmalloc.c. Closes: #157304.
* Fix several read pass buffer bugs, and a memleak. Closes: #155362.
* Fix segfault when --auto-deconfigure is given. Closes: #157762.
* Allow spaces between the end of a version, and the trailing ')'.
Closes: #154898.
* Fixes for HURD: Closes: #156545
* Add i386-gnu0.3 to archtable.
* Fix handling of static compiles, with regard to zlib.
* Previous install-infos(before 1.10) handled multiple dir file entries,
because they would copy the entire stanza unmodified. The newest
version does not do this, as it reformats the options, and thereby
only takes the first line. So, we now split all the lines from the
stanza, and process them all. Closes: #147492.
* Fix corruption of available file, caused by use of memory that was
previously freed. Closes: #154257.
* Fix several minor memleaks.
* Remove /usr/sbin/start-stop-daemon. Closes: #156437.
