Description

While uploading on snape.ostt using svn rev: 5434, the iso: RHEL6.2-20111117.0-Server-SRPMS-DVD1.iso

unpack failed. The log is very long. There are a number of 7z failures only at the end does it show the seg fault. The error in the fossology log simply notes that the agent died, which is an appropriate message.

The iso can be found on the same machine as the debian iso was.

Fixed svn 5448

Windows executables look like archives and 7z will attempt to unpack them.
If that happens there will be a .bss file representing the .bss segment.
7z will try to unpack this further, potentially getting into an infinite
unpack loop. So if you see an octet type .bss file, consider it text
to avoid this problem. This problem was first noticed on papi-4.1.3-3.el6.src.rpm

Verified as fixed in svn rev. 5461 on snape. The rpm was successfully processed.
