The error reported by Ansgar Burchardt happens in the url_encode function of xdg-email, and is caused by the default awk being mawk instead of gawk. Here's what I get when I run exactly the same function standalone with mawk:
mawk: line 15: regular expression compile failed (bad class -- [], [^] or [) [...@a-za-z0-9.-\\ mawk: line 15: syntax error at or near ] mawk: line 17: syntax error at or near else mawk: line 20: syntax error at or near } It runs fine with gawk. -- Sreepathi Pai -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
