why is this bug assigned to package php4?
i get these error messages on a system that hasn't got any php installed
at all.
the error message originates in
apache_1.3.34/src/modules/standard/mod_mime_magic.c line 1765, so it
shows up in the source package apache and the binary package
apache-common.
...digging through the code i discover that the file parses the magic
file itself.
so i came up with the attached crude patch that you can put in
debian/patches/.
it just skips the offending line.
somebody should come up with a cleaner solution for this skipping or
implement regex support. :-)
