Website links not parsed problem

This is a problem with the package itself. It is an older package that hasn't been updated since the introduction of the actual Homepage: field in the debian packaging control file. Packages made before this was standardized usually put the homepage in the package description, which is what we are seeing here with AClock. Anything using APT will not be able to see AClock's homepage.

Does the web page work anymore? For me it does not work, could anyone else check?

Here is a patch to fix the problem, moving the website url from the description to the control file's Homepage field.

Hi, I'm unsubscribing ubuntu-sponsors, as this doesn't appear suitable for sponsorship right now.

Please forward this patch to Debian. It is preferable to make non-urgent changes directly in Debian, rather than have to maintain a fork of the package in Ubuntu.

If it wasn't for the above, and I was considering sponsoring this, note that it isn't uploadable in th current form, as there is no changelog entry.

Patch forwarded upstream.

I'm going to fix this with the next upload to Debian, the homepage moved to another place:
http://www.nongnu.org/gap/aclock/
