Thank you in advance! ** Changed in: gnome-do (Ubuntu Trusty) Status: New => Fix Committed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of UBUNTU - AL - BR, which is subscribed to Do. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1363589 Title: gnome-do help opens do.davebsd.com, redirects to spam site Status in Do: Fix Released Status in gnome-do package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in gnome-do source package in Precise: New Status in gnome-do source package in Trusty: Fix Committed Status in gnome-do source package in Utopic: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] The plugin Help buttons and Do's About link go to do.davebsd.com, which has been acquired by a spam provider. This upload changes the About link to go to do.cooperteam.net (the current homepage), and points the plugin Help buttons at Launchpad. [Test Case] Start gnome-do; type ‘about do’ and hit <enter> to summon the About page. Click on the Homepage link, and verify that it goes to do.cooperteam.net. Summon gnome-do, type ‘preferences’ and hit <enter> to summon the preferences page. Go to the “Plugins” tab and select any plugin. Hit the “About” button, if enabled. This should not take you to do.davebsd.com (but might do nothing). [Regression Potential] This code is only used in the About page and plugin About links, so that's what should be checked. Regressions are unlikely, the most likely regression would be crashes when pressing the buttons. [Original report] When clicking on 'help' in the gnome-do preferences, the link opened is "do.davebsd.com/wiki/index.php?title=Using_Do", it redirects several times, opening various spammy sites (gambling, shopping, etc). The real problem isn't gnome-do per se, but rather that do.davebsd.com seems to have been co-opted.
