[Bug 476429] [NEW] forum mail not processed due to wrong use of html2text API

[Robert Millan (IES Montserrat)]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: moodle


Forum mail isn't being processed.  At some point during the cronjob transaction, html_to_text() in weblib.php is called, and this function makes improper use of html2text API.  It aborts as a result, and mail is lost.

This might be related to html2text being replaced altogether recently
(http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-17542).  Upstream updated
html2text.php AND adjusted weblib.php (see
http://cvs.moodle.org/moodle/lib/weblib.php?revision=1.1346&view=markup),
but the Ubuntu package seems to be out of sync, using the old API:

  $result = html2text($html);

instead of:

  $h2t = new html2text($html);
  $result = $h2t->get_text();

** Affects: moodle (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
