Package: lynx
Version: 2.9.2-1
Severity: important
lynx does not discard output from mailcap test, so that "lynx -dump"
generates incorrect output.
With mailcap 3.71:
$ lynx -dump /dev/null
/bin/atril
/usr/bin/emacs
/usr/bin/emacs
/bin/gimp-2.10
/bin/baobab
/bin/eog
/bin/evince
/bin/inkscape
/bin/wireshark
because /etc/mailcap now has lines like
application/pdf; atril %s; test=command -v atril && test -n "$DISPLAY"
where "command -v atril" outputs "/bin/atril".
I can see from strace output that lynx executes
434913 execve("/bin/sh", ["sh", "-c", "--", "command -v atril && test -n
\"$DISPLAY\""], 0x55b606914990 /* 137 vars */ <unfinished ...>
and so on.
As a comparison, run-mailcap discards stdout and stderr:
if ($match =~ m/;\s*test=(.*?)\s*($|;)/) {
my $test;
print STDERR " - running test: $1 " if $debug;
$test = system "$1 >/dev/null 2>&1";
