Package: uudeview
Version: 0.5.20-3.2
Severity: normal
Hi,
I noticed inconsistent behaviour of uuenview -- sometime it works
and sometime it doesn't. I've hunted it down so that the error can
be reproduced with a simple command.
First, here is it's normal behaviour:
echo abc > abc
$ echo short sentence | uuenview -b -a abc
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="==UUD_=_1282748652"
--==UUD_=_1282748652
Content-Type: text/plain
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
short sentence
--==UUD_=_1282748652
Content-Type: Application/Octet-Stream
Content-Transfer-Encoding: Base64
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="abc"
YWJjCg==
--==UUD_=_1282748652--
I.e., plain text and attachment are in separate mine content types.
here is it's abnormal behaviour:
$ echo '/dev/sda1: 1601M HPFS/NTFS' | uuenview -b -a abc
/dev/sda1: 1601M HPFS/NTFS
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="==UUD_=_1282748672"
--==UUD_=_1282748672
Content-Type: Application/Octet-Stream
Content-Transfer-Encoding: Base64
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="abc"
YWJjCg==
--==UUD_=_1282748672--
I.e., plain text does not have separate mine content type any more.
In fact, it is in the mail header now, which was the reason that I
can't see the plain text in my normal mail clients.
This might be a bug that should be fixed. Meanwhile, I've also found a
simple solution:
$ echo -e '\n/dev/sda1: 1601M HPFS/NTFS' | uuenview -b -a abc
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="==UUD_=_1282748678"
--==UUD_=_1282748678
Content-Type: text/plain
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
/dev/sda1: 1601M HPFS/NTFS
--==UUD_=_1282748678
Content-Type: Application/Octet-Stream
Content-Transfer-Encoding: Base64
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="abc"
YWJjCg==
--==UUD_=_1282748678--
Please investigate.
Thanks
