Bug#877765: libfile-mimeinfo-perl: error when --all is used with --describe

[Piotr Trojanek]

Package: libfile-mimeinfo-perl
Version: 0.27-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

when mimetype utility is called with both --all (to "Show output of all
rules that match the file.") and --describe (to "Print file descriptions
instead of mime types.") then it gives an error:

$ touch empty && mimetype --all --describe empty
Modification of a read-only value attempted at /usr/share/perl5/File/MimeInfo.pm line 237.

Probably something to be reported upstream.
