Hi Sebastien! Thank you for your reply on my issue. I was wondering about the process for this trouble report.
Yes, I still have this issue and my "long" username contains '&' and my "nickname" contains '-'. I have not tried lucid yet, but I am to try it as soon it is released (just a few days left!). I wish you good luck and please notify me if you found something and in witch release it will be corrected. Best Regards, Anders Lindström > Thank you for your bug report.
