*** Please type your report below this line ***
This is a problem with
/usr/share/doc/texmf/tex4ht/tex4ht_doc.html
At the bottom of the page, the tilde in the URL of [1] and [2]
reference is not displayed but the links contain it. Also the URL
in [1] is incorrect: TeX4ht/ is missing before mn.html.
I think the problem is with the source file tex4ht_doc.tex.gz:
note that latex interprets ~ as a non-breakable space and not as a
tilde character. As for the hyperref package, arguments denoted by
URL are exceptions, as they interpret # and ~ as normal characters.
I suggest that, since you want to display the URL you link to, you
use \url{...} instead of \href{...}{...}. Doing that you have to
type every URL only once not twice.
Therefore I suggest the following patch, which replaces \href with
\url and corrects the URL in [1]:
