• Bug#1060449: completely wrong version number reported

    From ahs3@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jan 11 19:10:01 2024
    Package: imapfilter
    Version: 1:2.8.2-1
    Severity: serious

    The imapfilter package is listed as 2.8.2. However, the version
    reported is:

    $ /usr/bin/imapfilter -V
    IMAPFilter 2.7.1 Copyright (c) 2001-2020 Eleftherios Chatzimparmpas

    While this is mostly annoying, I've run into the following problem that
    was fixed in 2.7.4, according to upstream:

    $ imapfilter
    imapfilter: /usr/share/imapfilter/regex.lua:10: bad argument #1 to 'compile' (string expected, got nil)
    stack traceback:
    [C]: in ?
    [C]: in field 'compile'
    /usr/share/imapfilter/regex.lua:10: in metamethod 'index'
    /usr/share/imapfilter/regex.lua:21: in function 'regex_search'
    /usr/share/imapfilter/mailbox.lua:986: in function </usr/share/imapfilter/mailbox.lua:976>
    (...tail calls...)
    /usr/share/imapfilter/set.lua:598: in method 'match_from'
    /home/foo/.imapfilter/config.lua:20: in function 'foo'
    /home/foo/.imapfilter/config.lua:76: in main chunk

    This bug has definitely been fixed in 2.8.2 when rebuilt from upstream
    source using sid; it works exactly as expected. So, imagine my surprise
    when I found out the current sid package version has no relationship to
    version actually shipped -- I have no idea what's actually being provided making this package mostly unusable.
