Bug 251687 – mail-filter/spamassassin-fuzzyocr patches for tmpdir bug and . in fname bug

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Heath Caldwell (RETIRED) 2008-12-20 00:44:26 UTC]

There is a bug in FuzzyOCR where it keeps reusing the some tmpdir for images, so processes step on each other's stuff, resulting in errors like this in the log:

Error running preprocessor(pamthreshold): /usr/bin/pamthreshold -simple -threshold 0.5
pamthreshold: bad magic number - not a PAM, PPM, PGM, or PBM file

See http://fuzzyocr.own-hero.net/ticket/421 and http://fuzzyocr.own-hero.net/ticket/110



Also, there is another bug where .'s are used in the image file name when it is generated from the content-id, causing an error when the part after the . is misinterpreted as a file extension.

See http://fuzzyocr.own-hero.net/ticket/60



Please consider including the attached patches to fix these bugs.

Thanks for the report! And sorry for the delay
