Ping? I almost forgot about this thread due to the holidays.
Despite the new year: It is still a bug. And we need a solution. :D
I suggested a comma which does not interfere with anything AFAIK. Creating patch for OSC is a matter of minutes and I can push it anytime. The only thing we need is to agree on the solution.
I am concerned that using such an exotic seperator will just create problems in another library, script, or language. Limiting the use of characters to the most portable subset of POSIX filenames: A–Za–z0–9._- would be a pragmatic choice.
Well, problem is, that those names are allowed in a name of projects, or packages. There are projects like home:-miska-, home:a_jaeger, Java:jpackage-1.7, (or something like Gnome_Community+OpenSUSE_Factory) and defining any of these character as a new separator will brings a lot of problems.
What type of problems? Thanks, Brandon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
