Package: libfile-stripnondeterminism-perl
Version: 0.029-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

This looks a lot like #817943 but still might be a different issue.

When dh-strip-nondeterminism processes a .zip with an encrypted file,
the .zip is altered in a way it should be considered broken afterwards.

How to repeat:

* Create a small encrypted .zip

$ touch a-file
$ zip -Pverysecret archive.zip a-file

* zipinfo tells it is sound:

$ zipinfo archive.zip 
| Archive:  archive.zip
| Zip file size: 190 bytes, number of entries: 1
| -rw-r--r--  3.0 unx        0 BX stor 17-Jan-22 14:35 a-file
| 1 file, 0 bytes uncompressed, 0 bytes compressed:  0.0%

* Run File::StripNondeterminism against that file. Like using the following
  script which is what dh-strip-nondeterminism basically does:

-------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use File::StripNondeterminism;
my $file = $ARGV[0];
my $normalizer = File::StripNondeterminism::get_normalizer_for_file($file);
$normalizer->($file);
-------------------------------------------------------------------

* Check the .zip again

$ zipinfo archive.zip 
| Archive:  archive.zip
| Zip file size: 178 bytes, number of entries: 1
| -rw-r--r--  3.0 unx        0 BX stor 80-Jan-01 13:01 a-file
| 1 file, 0 bytes uncompressed, 18446744073709551604 bytes compressed:  0.0%
                                = 0xfffffffffffffff4

* Also unzip cannot handle this:

$ unzip -t archive.zip
| Archive:  archive.zip
| 
|   error:  invalid compressed data to inflate
| At least one error was detected in archive.zip.

In case there's a package in Debian that ships an encrypted .zip file,
that one was broken now. Although I cannot think why anyone would want
to do that. Severity left to normal therefore.

Regards,

    Christoph
