#16491: base/src/port/port.tcl should quote homepage when opening it
------------------------------------------+---------------------------------
Reporter: blb at macports.org | Owner: macports-tickets at lists.macosforge.org
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts base bugs
Component: base | Version: 1.7.0
Keywords: port command homepage gohome | Port:
------------------------------------------+---------------------------------
In the code for handling the gohome command, the $homepage variable is not
quoted when passed to the shell, which causes issues when a character
handled by the shell is present in the homepage. To see this, try {{{port
gohome xdvipdfmx}}} and note that the page loaded has everything from the
& to the end stripped. To see a more catastrophic error, try {{{port
gohome libksba}}} (at least until that port's homepage is corrected).
