Description:   Opened: 2006-06-04 08:44 0000
When asking for information on packages with non-developers listed as
maintainers herdstat produces incorrect results.  Yeah, I spotted it while
doing a vanity check :P

  Example output is probably going to be the easiest way to explain the
problem.

  The following output is from herdstat v1.1.91 using libherdstat-0.2.0:

$ herdstat -pd jnrowe
Developer:     jnrowe
Email:         jnrowe@gentoo.org
Packages(2):   app-text/diction
               www-client/surfraw

or possibly:

$ herdstat -pd jnrowe@ukfsn
Developer:     jnrowe@ukfsn
Email:         jnrowe@ukfsn
Packages(2):   app-text/diction
               www-client/surfraw

which is approaching correct, or even:

$ herdstat -pd jnrowe@bughunter
Developer:     jnrowe@bughunter
Email:         jnrowe@bughunter
Packages(2):   app-text/diction
               www-client/surfraw

  Whilst looking in to patching this myself I failed to see why the code
works as it does, so I've opted it to leave it to someone who understands
it.  However I noticed while looking that it allows for other incorrect
output because of the handling of @ symbols in the input:

$ herdstat -pd ka0ttic@hopefully_bug_fixer
Developer:      Aaron Walker (ka0ttic@hopefully_bug_fixer)
Email:          ka0ttic@gentoo.org
Packages(98):   app-admin/chroot_safe
                app-admin/metalog
                                ...

  Although perhaps I'm missing something and this is desired behaviour for
something.

Thanks for your time


James

  The situation is possibly better than with the x86 keyworded 1.1.7_p7 in
the original case:

$ herdstat -pd jnrowe
Failed to find any packages maintained by 'jnrowe'.

and:

$ herdstat -pd jnrowe@ukfsn.org
Developer:       jnrowe@ukfsn.org
Email:           jnrowe@ukfsn.org@gentoo.org
Packages(2):     app-text/diction
                 www-client/surfraw
