[darcs-devel] [issue26] Darcs needs real MIME parsing, fails with Mail.app, Courier

[Zooko]

I just learned that darcs patches submitted to my mailing list by a contributor
are not usable.  The new information -- to me -- is that it has nothing to do
with the mail user agent used on the receiving side (I currently use Apple
Mail.app, unfortunately).  Even if I log into the server which hosts the mailing
list and copy the mail out of its /var/lib/mailman file, the patch still doesn't
apply.  Here is the patch I wanted to apply, attached as patch.txt.bz2, and here
is the output from darcs apply:

$ darcs apply -v -v -v patch.txt

darcs failed:  Patch bundle failed hash!
This probably means that the patch has been corrupted by a mailer.
The most likely culprit is CRLF newlines.
