I'm at school rn and I'm gonna be busy for the next couple of days, so I probably won't be able to look at this for a bit.

Do you have access to an Arch machine right now? If so, getting the output of pacman -V and comparing it to makedeb's output (see if there's any extra newlines or anything) might reveal something.

hwittenborn commented 2 years ago

Looking into this now @gebi, and it looks like makedeb's --mpr-check command is missing some output.

If you replace the following in the CAPTCHA command, it should work for signups for the time being:

makedeb --mpr-check |
(makedeb --mpr-check; printf '\n') |

awesome thx, the hint with using arch for the captcha worked

screenshot of vimdiff of output of makedeb --mpr-check compared between debian/arch image

As you spotted, yes there is a newline missing at the end and the version is different.

this cmd now produces the same captcha on debian as the one without \n on arch

% (makedeb --mpr-check; printf '\n') | sed -r 's#[0-9]+#509#g' | md5sum | cut -c1-6

I'm gonna leave this open until the issue is fixed in makedeb, just so other people know the issue exists if they come to this repository.

hwittenborn commented 2 years ago

Fixed in the latest release of makedeb.
