Micah Gersten : Urlencoding was here to protect the syntax. If we don't urlencode special characters, what happens if a filename contains a single quote ', a double quote " or a virgule , ? Ex. : thunderbird -compose "attachment='file:///file\,g'".
The result is that the whole syntax is broken, because thunderbird interpret the character while it should not. Therefore yes using a space without urlencoding works with TB3, but accepting this syntax means : 1. Accepting that some filenames won't work at all (which is a bug IMO). 2. Accepting that xdg-email will have no way to be both compatible with TB2 and TB3, therefore affecting all applications that might use xdg-email to send mails with attachments until TB3 gets into every distributions that uses it. -- No attachment when thunderbird 3 is set as default client. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/515386 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
