Package: qa.debian.org
Severity: wishlist

Lines of the form
│Vcs-CVS: :ext:[email protected]:/cvs contrib/hosted/tg/deb/makefs
are converted to bogus hyperlinks of the form
│http://packages.qa.debian.org/libb/:ext:_anoncvs%40anoncvs.mirbsd.org:/cvs%20contrib/hosted/tg/deb/libbsd-arc4random-perl
which is wrong for a number of reasons.

CVS specifications are not URIs, they consist of two parts, and
the separator is important (i.e. the parts cannot possibly be
easily concatenated), as it specifies the location of the root.

So I suggest to not make hyperlinks out of VCS-CVS fields, but
maybe display them as hover information.

VCS-Browser, if existent, are fine though.
