Package: libconfig-simple-perl
Version: 4.59-3
Severity: normal
Config::Simple has some issues when parsing Ini-files. This File
[colors]
average (2009) = blue
leads to the error message
| Something went wrong. No supported configuration file syntax found. Either
the file is of wrong syntax, or there is a bug in guess_syntax() method. at
/usr/share/perl5/Config/Simple.pm line 184, <FH> line 2.
I've played around a bit with this line and the closing paranthesis
seems to be the problem. In fact, string that ends with a
non-word-character makes Config::Simple choke. So
average (2009 = blue
average (2009)a = blue
both are correct.
The error message is misleading, to me the culprit seems to be
line 290:
$line =~ /^\s*([^=]*\w)\s*=\s*(.*)\s*$/ and
$data{$bn}->{lcase($1)}=[parse_line(READ_DELIM, 0, $2)], next;
I'd suggest changing the regexp to
/^\s*([^=]+)\s*=\s*(.*)\s*$/
but haven't had time to test this change, hence no patch attached. :)
