Yes, '+' doesn't have a reserved purpose in the path component, but does encode a space in the query string. So it doesn't have to be escaped in the path component and can be used as is (although percentage encoding is recommended nobody seems to do it). > > This seems to work fine for nntp and imap, but not https. > > Interesting that NNTP and IMAP work (I wasn't expecting it :x). > > I can't remember off the top of my head, but is '+' allowed by > the relevant NNTP and List-Id RFCs? I don't know. I just observed that I can see the group name inbox.gcc.libstdc++ in my nttp and imap readers when pointing at inbox.sourceware.org. > > We are using the EPEL public-inbox package public-inbox-1.7.0-2.el8.noarch > > Totally untested, but perhaps changing $INBOX_RE in > PublicInbox/WWW.pm will work: > > diff --git a/lib/PublicInbox/WWW.pm b/lib/PublicInbox/WWW.pm > index b9b68382..77f463d3 100644 > --- a/lib/PublicInbox/WWW.pm > +++ b/lib/PublicInbox/WWW.pm > @@ -23,7 +23,7 @@ use PublicInbox::WwwStatic qw(r path_info_raw); > use PublicInbox::Eml; > > # TODO: consider a routing tree now that we have more endpoints: > -our $INBOX_RE = qr!\A/([\w\-][\w\.\-]*)!; > +our $INBOX_RE = qr!\A/([\w\-][\w\.\-\+]*)!; > our $MID_RE = qr!([^/]+)!; > our $END_RE = qr!(T/|t/|t\.mbox(?:\.gz)?|t\.atom|raw|)!; > our $ATTACH_RE = qr!([0-9][0-9\.]*)-($PublicInbox::Hval::FN)!; That works! https://inbox.sourceware.org/libstdc++ looks fully functional now. Now to figure out how to properly include that patch before the other sourceware overseers figure out I patched the packaged code in place.
