Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-06-20 22:07:44 UTC
Since I just noticed a package (app-cdr/cuetools) having a bzip2-compressed patch _in the cvs tree_, I'd like to request a repoman feature to check the mime types of the files in $FILESDIR and reject stuff like this.

Thanks,
Diego

repoman support has been removed per bug 835013.

Please file a new bug (or, I suppose, reopen this one) if you feel this check is still applicable to pkgcheck and doesn't already exist.
