Description Murray McAllister 2011-10-12 00:03:15 UTC
Description of problem:

Not sure if this can be fixed in Publican. If punctuation (I only tried : and ,) is used after the email tag, a space is added that cannot be removed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
publican-2.7-1
firefox-3.6.23-2.el6_1.x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation release 6.1 (Santiago)

How reproducible:
Always, for me.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. use a . or a : after an email tag, for example:

Email <email>this</email>. to

End of the line <email>another</email>.(\n)

2. Build with the common brand in the txt, html, html-single, and pdf formats.
  
Actual results:
Email this . to

End of the line another .

Expected results:
Email this. to

End of the line another.

The "," should be a ".". I did not try ",".

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to
address this request at this time. Red Hat invites you to
ask your support representative to propose this request, if
appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. If you would like it considered as an
exception in the current release, please ask your support
representative.

This seems to be fixed in publican-3.0-0.fc17.t216.noarch on Beefy Miracle. Please test on your system and close if this problem no longer occurs.

This would require rebasing Publican to fix in RHEL.
