Package: imagemagick
Version: 8:6.6.0.4-3
Severity: important

Hello.

it seems, that a limitation (probably a bug) in mime-support=3.48-1 is
triggered (at least) by imagemagick=8:6.6.0.4-3 (squeeze):

while in lenny, imagemagick provides an update-mime input file
/usr/lib/mime/packages/imagemagick, containing lines like

image/xyz; display 'xyz:%s'; test=test -n "$DISPLAY"

the file shipped with squeeze, now
/usr/lib/mime/packages/imagemagick contains lines

image/xyz; display xyz:'%s'; test=test -n "$DISPLAY"; priority=2.

update-mime (squeeze), reading the corresponding file, for whatever
reason, outputs lines

image/xyz; display 'xyz:'%s''; test=test -n "$DISPLAY";

into /etc/mailcap. for some other reason, run-mailcap (aka. see) fails
to parse this line, resulting in the error reported by Bastian
Kleineidam (#589887, archived).

while the behaviour or mime-support is certainly annoying, i see no
reason, why "xyz:'%s'" (squeeze) should be preferred to the previously
working version "'xyz:%s'". this issue for example affects the function
of all serious mail readers (if theres no package installed that
provides a working rule with higher priority), thus, is important.

after all, until mime-support is fixed, it would make sense to change
all occurrences of ([a-z]*):'%s' in /usr/lib/mime/packages/imagemagick
to '\1:%s'.

regards & thanks
felix
