Bug#1100850: gsequencer: documentation links to expired, domain-squatted libsoup.org
Source: gsequencer
Version: 7.6.10-1
Severity: minor
Tags: upstream
libsoup.org appears to have expired or otherwise come under the control
of someone outside GNOME, and is now advertising online gambling. The
replacement URL for the libsoup HTTP library is libsoup.gnome.org.
It would be nice if there were no references to libsoup.org in trixie,
so that we are not advertising a site that could contain malware either
now or in the future. I'm in the process of replacing the references to
the old domain within the GNOME team, but gsequencer is outside the
team's control.
Pseudo-patch: remove
docs_url = "https://libsoup.org/libsoup-3.0/index.html";
and replace with
docs_url = "https://libsoup.gnome.org/libsoup-3.0/index.html";
in both docs/reference/libags/Ags.conf.in and
docs/reference/libags-audio/AgsAudio.conf.in, similar to
<https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/tinysparql/-/merge_requests/765>.
Please send this change upstream if you can (unfortunately I was unable
to access their issue tracker).
Thanks,
smcv
