Hello Deb,

Yesterday we merged the PR with the fix. You can compile the latest master or 
pull the latest docker image from Docker hub with the patch.

With best regards,
Gaurav Mishra

Subject: Re: [FOSSology] Unpacking Debian Files - Fossology Version 3.8.1

Thanks for the quick find and fix.

Yes, we did change the base system on which Fossology is running. Our Fossology 
3.8.1 instance is deployed to a separate server running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

Based on your diagnosis, as a workaround we tried changing /etc/mime.types to 
point 'deb' files back to the previous MIME type of 
"application/x-debian-package" but still saw the same behavior. Next we will 
try a custom compiled version that applies your patch.

Thank you for your prompt response!

Deb

Hello Frye,

It seems like the mimetype of .deb archives was changed (only official document 
I could find is this 
https://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/application/vnd.debian.binary-package<https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.iana.org%2Fassignments%2Fmedia-types%2Fapplication%2Fvnd.debian.binary-package&data=04%7C01%7Cmishra.gaurav%40siemens.com%7C329844d4b86b41a168ce08d884ba81a4%7C38ae3bcd95794fd4addab42e1495d55a%7C1%7C0%7C637405283872177244%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=HRmFIC1W9M5Dfv%2B3O1jKq2VVWotJgvKjg0KMXpchRog%3D&reserved=0>).
I have created a PR with the new mimetype which you can find here: 
https://github.com/fossology/fossology/pull/1831<https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Ffossology%2Ffossology%2Fpull%2F1831&data=04%7C01%7Cmishra.gaurav%40siemens.com%7C329844d4b86b41a168ce08d884ba81a4%7C38ae3bcd95794fd4addab42e1495d55a%7C1%7C0%7C637405283872187241%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=xEystvjSvjfJS2hwH7GL2Z5%2FNsc8VuLznqDvhEiYLQU%3D&reserved=0>

Also, I was wondering did you changed the base system the fossology is running, 
as there was no change in the code base related to it?

With best regards,
Gaurav Mishra

Subject: [FOSSology] Unpacking Debian Files - Fossology Version 3.8.1


Recently upgraded Fossology to Version 3.8.1.  Previous version unpacked and 
scanned Debian files within FOSS packages; however, seems like new version is 
not consistently unpacking them.  Has anyone else run into this?



Any help would be greatly appreciated.
