Package: sox Version: 14.0.1-2 Severity: minor
When the input file to sox is a pathname of the format "word:...", sox tries to download it as a URL with wget. This matching leads to false positives and sox doesn't check/report errors properly. $ cp ~/somefile.ogg ab:cd.ogg $ sox ab:cd.ogg e.ogg sox soxio: Can't open input file `ab:cd.ogg': Input not an Ogg Vorbis audio stream $ sox ./ab:cd.ogg e.ogg # (success) Primary suggested change: check if wget failed, and if so say "wget failed" and exit immediately. This way the user can see right away that the problem is that sox thought it was a URL, and use the "./" workaround. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
