Public bug reported:
Trying to build the current version of symfony in the archive
(6.4.21+dfsg-2) using questing-proposed causes it to FTBFS.
One of the steps in building symfony includes checking licenses of the images.
This is done through evaluating debian/copyright and it's done by the
debian/licensing/bin/check_image_licenes script.
This script uses base64 + sha256 to calculate checksums to be validated.
The problem at hand is caused because the `grep` call which searches for
png/gif/svg images in the code is returning some false positives - like
test files which use invalid base64 strings to describe images. For
example,
src/Symfony/Component/AssetMapper/Tests/Compiler/CssAssetUrlCompilerTest.php
contains the line:
'input' => "background-image: url(\'data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KG\')",
so it gets parsed by the license check script, which tries to decode
'iVBORw0KG\' as base64, when it should not.
If in one hand this is a bug in the script that needs fixing in symphony
(in Debian, preferrably, as there is no Ubuntu delta), this was working
before because the checksums, although wrong, were calculated with the
output of `base64 -d`. This bug was only caught because base64 from the
new coreutils is returning different outputs for invalid base64 strings
when compared to the gnu one. As follows:
$ dpkg -S /usr/bin/base64
coreutils: /usr/bin/base64
$ echo 'definitelynotbase64\' | base64 -d
u��+^�)赶�{�base64: neplatný vstup
versus
$ dpkg -S /usr/bin/base64
coreutils-from-uutils: /usr/bin/base64
$ echo 'definitelynotbase64\' | base64 -d
base64: error: invalid input
Despite the localization difference, which should be fine, note there is
no output in the second case. IMHO this is a regression on coreutils-
from, and thus I'm adding it to this bug. Please let me know if this can
be tracked here or if you want a separate bug filed against coreutils-
from.
