[DRE-maint] Bug#1109433: unblock: ruby-mimemagic/0.4.3-2

Cédric Boutillier boutil at debian.org
Thu Jul 17 16:03:05 BST 2025 

Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: ruby-mimemagic at packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:ruby-mimemagic
User: release.debian.org at packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock

Please unblock package ruby-mimemagic


[ Reason ]
The package was wrongly considered as arch:any. The package installed
the gemspec file, which is important for the interpreter to find the
library in an arch- and ruby-version-specific path, but was not
dependending on librubyx.y (for a good reason, because it's pure Ruby).
Therefore the  package was not rebuilt for the transition to ruby3.3,
and the gemspec file is in a ruby3.1-specific path: so ruby3.3 in trixie
cannot find the corresponding library.


[ Impact ]
If the unblock is not granted, the package is not usable with ruby3.3.
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1109024


[ Tests ]
The package has no test, but ruby-file-validators is build-depending on
that package, and the tests pass with ruby-mimemagic 0.4.3-2.
Autopackagetest tests if the gemspec file is found by the interpreter,
this new version fixes this.


[ Risks ]
No risk involved. This is exactly the same code shipped, just installed
in an arch-independent path (as it should be). The action of the
Rakefile under /ext/mimemagic that was called during build, is replaced
by a patch to create a file containing the correct path to freedesktop
shared-mime-info database.


[ Other info ]
I forgot to increase the urgency level in the changelog. But of course,
it's better if it can migrate (much) earlier. Thanks!

[ Checklist ]
  [x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [x] attach debdiff against the package in testing
