Any news from this > front? Hi Thorsten, I don't see any bug open about this. Did I just miss it? If not, in the future could you please file a bug if you run into a false positive like this?

Done for the next release, although I limited it to :ext: URLs that use a username of anoncvs or _anoncvs and therefore probably don't require authentication. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-lint-maint-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
