Package: bbdb Version: 2.36-3 Severity: normal I have a german phone number i would like to store in bbdb.
It is canonically written on a business card as +49 XX XXXX XXXX (the X's are standins for decimal digits). when i try to enter this in bbdb, bbdb says "phone number unparseable" It works when i enter it as: 49XXXXXXXXXX but that is then stored as: 49X-XXXX xXXXXX which is a silly way to store it. for a contact manager in a global world, bbdb needs to do a better job with international phone numbers. --dkg -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (200, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.8-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages bbdb depends on: ii dpkg 1.16.10 ii emacs23 [emacsen] 23.4+1-4 ii install-info 4.13a.dfsg.1-10 ii make 3.81-8.2 ii perl 5.14.2-21 bbdb recommends no packages.
