livecheck.url containing semicolon

[Ryan Schmidt]

I want to set up livecheck for fontconfig and I want to use the  
following livecheck URL:

${homepage}release/?C=M;O=D

How can I do this? I've tried:


livecheck.url       ${homepage}release/?C=M;O=D

--> doesn't work because it gets cut off at the semicolon; "port -dv  
livecheck" shows:

DEBUG: Fetching http://fontconfig.org/release/?C=M


livecheck.url       ${homepage}release/?C=M\;O=D

--> doesn't work because of "unsupported protocol" which is weird:

DEBUG: Fetching {http://fontconfig.org/release/?C=M;O=D}
Error: cannot check if fontconfig was updated (unsupported protocol)


livecheck.url       "${homepage}release/?C=M;O=D"

--> doesn't work for the same reason as above: "unsupported protocol".


livecheck.url       ${homepage}release/?C=M%3BO=D

--> doesn't work because the server does not deliver the same  
response when I encode the semicolon as %3B.
