--- Begin Message ---Package: python-moinmoin Version: 1.9.9-1+deb10u1 Severity: normal Dear Moinmoin maintainer, The mail-verification.patch adds the line: mailok, msg = sendmail.sendmail(request, user.email, subject, text, request.cfg.mail_from) The second argument of sendmail.sendmail should be a list but user.email is not a list! This can be fixed by replacing the above line in the mail-verification.patch with: mailok, msg = sendmail.sendmail(request, [user.email], subject, text, request.cfg.mail_from) ie: the addition of [] around user.email This bug stops external_account_creation_check.patch from working properly. Please can you make this tiny fix! If you need more info please let me know. Many thanks Alex Owen PS: for sysadmin out there who want to monkey patch this you can do by copying the action into your wiki instance as a custom action and fixing there. ie: SUDO=sudo $SUDO cp -p /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/MoinMoin/action/newaccount.py \ $WIKI/data/plugin/action/ $SUDO sed -i -e'/mailok, msg = sendmail.sendmail/s/user.email/\[user.email\]/' \ $WIKI/data/plugin/action/newaccount.py
