I think this is actually a trac bug or a mailman bug rather than on Matt's end. You can see that mail is just a forward from the activity in the ticket. http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/ticket/2914 If you look at the links there, they are correctly ending before the trailing punctuation. However, in the generated mail (at least in the mailman archives), the punctuation has been included in the URL. One of the admins would have to hunt that down. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
