Package: libparse-debianchangelog-perl
Version: 1.1.1-2.1
Severity: minor

parsing bug, where the three first characters of the ‘&gt;’ entity are added to
the URL, and the last one (the semicolon) is added after the closing anchor
tag. Here is an example from the imagej changelog (1.44c-3)


  * Team upload, see <http://bugs.debian.org/600997>.

becomes:

<pre>   * Team upload, see &lt;<a 
href="http://bugs.debian.org/600997&gt";>http://bugs.debian.org/600997&gt</a>;.


You can see this on line:
http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/i/imagej/current/changelog

I also have confirmed the bug locally.

Have a nice week-end,
