Control: severity -1 serious I am raising the severity to serious, because this issue affects a release architecture: mips.
In a rebuild of patch for mips the relevant check fails sometimes. It didn't fail on the buildd last time and doesn't fail in all of my rebuilds, but it does fail occasionally. Jakub Wilk suggested to replace the check with a different version: ! strings -n 2 src/patch | grep -w 'ed$' | grep -vx ed This variant allows multiple occurrences of "ed" and also shows why the check fails. It is semantically different, in that it also accepts any input that contains ed no matter what other strings ending in ed are included as well. What I am getting out of that command for mips occasionally is "`ed" (without the double quotes but including the back-quote).
