Description of problem: uudeview fails to decode any files Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): uudeview-0.5.20-15 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. uudeview foo.enc Actual results: $ uudeview foo.enc Loaded from foo.enc: '' (foo): foo part 1 Text Found 'foo' State 16 Text Parts OK -rw-r--r-- foo is OK [d] (?=help) y ERROR: Write error on target file uudeview.tmp.VuzNiI: File exists ERROR: while decoding foo (foo): File I/O Error 0 files decoded from 1 input file, 1 failed Expected results: $ /home/proski/src/uudeview-0.5.20/unix/uudeview foo.enc Loaded from foo.enc: '' (foo): foo part 1 Text Found 'foo' State 16 Text Parts OK -rw-r--r-- foo is OK [d] (?=help) y File successfully written to /home/proski/tmp/uude/foo 1 file decoded from 1 input file, 0 failed Additional info: The standard uudeview-0.5.20 compiled from the sources doesn't have this problem. It's a Fedora specific problem, likely due to an incorrect security patch. I'm giving it the highest severity because it's the primary function of uudeview to decode files, and it fails at it every time, and there is no workaround I could devise by trying all options.
