 It looks like the PTS is replacing - with _, which is breaking some
 lintian links.  See zoneminder, for example.

I've just fixed the XSL to avoid escaping '-' as a quick fix. I haven't
yet regenerated the pages though.

 The list of characters that should be left unmodified are:
 a-z A-Z 0-9 _ . @ = + -

Still, ATM the PTS is not implementing this naming scheme as the
replacement is being done using the XPath function translate() which is
lacking character negation behaviour; nor anything in EXSLT permits that
IIRC.

I fear the only way to go to be in sync is doing replacement character
by character with a recursive template, or moving the name escaping to
the Python part of the PTS.

Cheers.

 I want to minimize the breakage in links from the PTS and developer pages,
 so I want to coordinate with you a good time to do this.  Could you let me
 know when would be a good time to do the switch, assuming that the archive
 run needs to start about a day and a half in advance of when the new URLs
 will be live?

For me you can go ahead right now if you want, I should be able to find
some time tomorrow (or on sunday) for the PTS if zack is not faster.

In any case, broken links are not the end of the world and it's doesn't
require an up-to-the minute synchronization ;-)

Ack, whatever time you want is fine. I'll be happy to leave the change
to buxy, since (assuming tomorrow I'll do some PTS hacking) I've
something else as my topmost priority.

Ack on this as well :)

Coordinate time for the lintian URL updates

2007-12-20 Thread Russ Allbery
Hello folks,

lintian has migrated to testing, so I'm now ready to update lintian.d.o.
An update will mean a full-archive run, which takes a little more than a
day, after which the old maintainer URLs will be no more and the new
format with the e-mail address must be used.

I want to minimize the breakage in links from the PTS and developer pages,
so I want to coordinate with you a good time to do this.  Could you let me
know when would be a good time to do the switch, assuming that the archive
run needs to start about a day and a half in advance of when the new URLs
will be live?
