Description Cristian Ciupitu 2013-12-12 00:23:57 UTC
Created attachment 835518 [details]
gnome terminal with man: links

Description of problem:
Highlighting does not work for man: links containing hyphens (-).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-terminal-3.10.2-1.fc20.x86_64

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start gnome-terminal
2. Display a man page link inside it, for example by running:
    systemctl status systemd-vconsole-setup.service 
which will display:
      Docs: man:systemd-vconsole-setup.service(8)
            man:vconsole.conf(5)
3. Move the mouse over the first man page i.e. systemd-vconsole-setup.service.

Actual results:
Only man:systemd will be highlighted (see attached screenshot).

Expected results:
The whole man:systemd-vconsole-setup.service(8) link should be highlighted.

Comment 1 Egmont Koblinger 2014-03-17 23:33:03 UTC
I've reported upstream: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=726588

Comment 2 Cristian Ciupitu 2014-06-01 00:17:58 UTC
I've noticed that this has been fixed upstream. What will happen with Fedora 20?

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2015-05-29 09:58:16 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '20'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 20 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2015-06-29 13:28:55 UTC
Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

Comment 5 Cristian Ciupitu 2016-11-08 10:10:09 UTC
For what it's worth, this has been fixed in Fedora 25.
