Package: iceweasel Version: 3.0.6-3 Severity: normal
Iceweasel corrupts valid urls, such as: http://www.geektools.com/rfc/rfc1738.txt#en%7cus Into invalid ones (e.g. when pasting from/to the location entry) by changing the %7c into | which is not valid. http://www.geektools.com/rfc/rfc1738.txt?#en|us '|' is one of the unsafe characters in a URL and always needs to be encoded (there are other unsafe characters I haven't checked, but | is unfortunately a common delimiter used around urls, at least aorund here, which makes this especially annoying). (this is not the same as the corruption bug when using the selection, this corruption happens even when using the clipboard). implementing urls shouldn't be that hard, and it's an important interoperability standard. so I think this behaviour is a definite bug. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.2 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages iceweasel depends on: ii debianutils 2.30 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii fontconfig 2.6.0-3 generic font configuration library hi libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libglib2.0-0 2.20.0-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.12.12-1~lenny1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libnspr4-0d 4.7.1-5 NetScape Portable Runtime Library ii libstdc++6 4.5-20100103-1 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii procps 1:3.2.7-11 /proc file system utilities ii psmisc 22.6-1 Utilities that use the proc filesy ii xulrunner-1.9 1.9.0.16-1 XUL + XPCOM application runner iceweasel recommends no packages.
