Description:

The upstream URL for this DOCBOOK to "PO" translation utility is pointing to the KDE hex editor. I'm not sure what the correct homepage is for this tool, but the current link isn't right.

This actually seems to be a general problem with all KDE packages that don't have URL specified in the PKGBUILD file. Other PKGBUILD files may also be affected similarly.


Additional info:
* kdesdk-poxml 4.7.2-1


Steps to reproduce:

Check the package details. For example:
* http://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/i686/kdesdk-poxml/
* http://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/i686/kdesdk-strigi-analyzer/
* http://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/i686/kdesdk-kioslave/
* http://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/i686/kdesdk-dolphin-plugins*

Ugh... that looks more like a makepkg bug. Adding me to assignees while I investigate.

So, overridding the url in split packages is not supported by makepkg. I have submitted a patch for this to be added.

This bug will be fixed with a simple rebuild once this patch is released.

Yep, I was sure you guys already knew about that, but I never really checked.
