Bugzilla 5.0* on sourceware.org / gcc.gnu.org has been disabled, apparently by
an update to this package.

perl-Email-MIME-ContentType-1.024-1.epel8.playground.noarch

The following error message is generated when outgoing mail is being
originated.

Invalid Content-Type 'subtype' parameter at Bugzilla/BugMail.pm line 471.

Reverting perl-Email-MIME and perl-Email-MIME-ContentType to the previous
(late-2019) versions fixes bugzilla.

--- Comment #1 from Tom "spot" Callaway <spotrh(a)gmail.com&gt; ---
This is the change that caused the issue:

https://github.com/rjbs/Email-MIME-ContentType/commit/ed2a0311dbaa268dc57...

Essentially, one of the subtypes is not matching this regex:

my $re_token = qr/[\x21\x23-\x27\x2A\x2B\x2D\x2E\x30-\x39\x41-\x5A\x5E-\x7E]+/;
# US-ASCII except SPACE, CTLs and tspecials ()<>@,;:\\"/[]?=

If you can change this line (178) from:

croak 'Invalid Content-Type \'subtype\' parameter' if $ct->{subtype}
!~
/^(?:$re_token)*$/;

to

croak "Invalid Content-Type 'subtype' parameter:
'$ct->{subtype}'" if
$ct->{subtype} !~ /^(?:$re_token)*$/;

I think that will shed light on what subtype in Bugzilla is not passing the
regex, and whether that is a bug in Bugzilla or in the regex.

Looks like Bug #1855962, which would be a bugzilla bug rather than one in 
perl-Email-MIME-ContentType.

Arguably, infrastructure code should not add new assertions ("croak") that
result in program crashes for API usage that was formerly acceptable.  Perhaps
consider turning that into a warning, if the Email-MIME code can tolerate the
previous usage?
