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.
