Dear Maintainer,

when I run "cme update dpkg-copyright" in the davmail package I get some
messages like these:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
$ cme update dpkg-copyright

By looking at the resulting debian/copyright file it looks like
Dpkg::Copyright tried to parse some binary files too:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The issue can be reproduced with these commands:

  $ git clone https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-java/davmail.git
  $ cd davmail/
  $ cme update dpkg-copyright

Thanks,
   Antonio

This is due to licensecheck which no longer follow the regexp given to --check
option (done in davmail source repo, see below):

$ licensecheck --encoding utf8 --copyright --machine '--check=.*\.(c|r)' --
recursive src/icon
src/icon/davmail.png    UNKNOWN ÿ3gÎ; / z¿>)çyñ]ïûÀ^´;;/ / zxÜ»Ê+õ3º$InÉò+

Given the regexp passed to --check, licensecheck should skip the png file.

Jonas, could you have a look ?

Thanks for this. I'm always glad when a bug report contains detailed
instructions to reproduce a bug which saves me some time :-)

All the best

Yes, I can confirm that licensecheck fails to respect --check.

Thanks for the bugreport!
