Description petrosyan 2007-05-16 15:37:04 UTC
Description of problem:
When I copy and paste the URL field for cook.spec file Firefox gives the
following error message:
The requested URL /pmiller/software/cook/\1 was not found on this server.

Deleting the last slash symbol and then manually typing it again makes the URL
work again. I think there is an invisible character at the end of the URL field. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cook-2.26-3.fc6

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. in gnome-terminal type "rpm -qi cook"
2. right click on the URL in gnome-terminal and select "Open Link"

There is no hidden character after the URL. I even looked at the hexdump. Maybe
you copied the whole line, including the end-of-line character?
Anyways, I will update to the newest version.

Please go to bug # 237018 comment 3 and click on the cook URL

Comment 3 Gérard Milmeister 2007-05-16 17:08:56 UTC
The package has indeed a new URL, I will change to that in the next release. But
fact is that there was no spurious character.
