Package: emacs
Severity: normal
As of 94758757dfd5, the ‘eww’ function uses the presence of a
full stop character in its ‘url’ argument as one of the
conditions to consider the value a URI proper (as opposed to:
keywords to pass to the search engine, as per
eww-search-prefix.)
This, however, fails, as IPv6 addresses are colon-delimited, and
thus IPv6-based URLs do not usually contain any full stop
characters (as in: https://[::1]/.)
Please thus consider the trivial patch MIMEd, which makes EWW
use ‘[.:]’ (was: ‘\.’) as the respective RE.
