Thanks,
This is strange. Now I have no idea where to look. (?)
I get the same incorrect results doing...
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ python2.5 -m webbrowser 'http://www.python.org'
Firefox attempts to open...
file:///home/ron/%22http://www.python.org%22
The following works ok:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ firefox 'http://www.python.org'
Works in the Ubuntu 2.4.4 dist (But blocks until the browser is closed.)
Doesn't work in the Ubuntu 2.5.1c1 dist
Python 2.5.1c1 (release25-maint, Apr 12 2007, 21:00:25)
Doesn't work in the 2.5 maintenance branch
Python 2.5 (release25-maint:54563, May 24 2007, 18:33:45)
Works in the 2.6 branch (trunk)
Works in the 3.0 branch
I'll try uninstalling and reinstalling. The Ubuntu 2.5 dist.
None of the svn versions are on the path, so it shouldn't be a path
conflict with them.
Ron
