Bug#366911: shared-mime-info: broken regex for AWK

[Anand Kumria]

Package: shared-mime-info
Version: 0.17-1
Severity: important

Hi,

/usr/bin/php complains about the following line:

0      regex           BEGIN[[:space:]]*[{]    application/x-awk

PHP Warning:  mime_magic: type regex            BEGIN[[:space:]]*[{] application/x-awk invalid in Unknown on line 0

Ordinarily this wouldn't be an issue but with drupal installed
/usr/bin/php is run every 5 minutes which cron to generate mail which
that exact warning. Thus the severity.

I suspect PHP does not expect 'extended' regexes in
/usr/share/mime/magic - when I comment out that line, things work fine

Thanks,
Anand
