Description Orion Poplawski 2006-03-21 23:37:25 UTC
Description of problem:

For some reason, the xterm-208-2.FC4 update uncommented the example charClass
setting in the app-defaults file:

! Here is a pattern that is useful for double-clicking on a URL:
*charClass: 33:48,35:48,37-38:48,43-47:48,58:48,61:48,63-64:48,126:48

It is still commented out in FC5:

! Here is a pattern that is useful for double-clicking on a URL:
!*charClass: 33:48,35:48,37-38:48,43-47:48,58:48,61:48,63-64:48,126:48
!
! Alternatively,
!*on2Clicks: regex
[[:alpha:]]+://([[:alnum:]!#+,./=?@~-]|(%[[:xdigit:]][[:xdigit:]]))+

Apparently this is an upstream change as of 208, but was reverted in 209:
Patch #208 - 2006/1/3 - XFree86 4.5.99.19

    * add charClass resource to XTerm.ad and UXTerm.ad which simplifies
selecting URLs (prompted by Kirill Ponomarew).


Patch #209 - 2006/2/12 - XFree86 4.5.99.22
    * revert the XTerm.ad change from patch #208 (Debian #348384).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xterm-208-2.FC4

Perhaps we can get another FC4 release?

Comment 1 Jason Vas Dias 2006-03-22 00:23:40 UTC
The current xterm release in FC-4 is xterm-208-4 (in Updates/Testing, now moved
to Updates/Final).
I expect to be releasing the latest version, xterm-211, FC-4 to Updates/Testing
soon, in which this issue is also fixed (the offending line in the XTerm 
Xresources file is again commented out).



Comment 2 Jason Vas Dias 2006-04-14 01:58:59 UTC
Now fixed with xterm-212-1.FC4, released to Updates/Testing today.

Comment 3 Orion Poplawski 2006-04-24 19:41:28 UTC
Confirmed fixed.

Comment 4 Fedora Update System 2006-05-03 18:51:12 UTC
xterm-212-1.FC4 has been pushed for fc4, which should resolve this issue.  If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.
