The filenames are generated by the rdoc tool - nothing to do with dnsruby or its packaging.

That would then give an rpm with the Ruby code, but without access to the ri documentation system.

So, for the filename you showed above, the correct URL would be: file:///usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/doc/pg-0.11.0/ri/PGconn/internal_encoding%253d-i.yaml ^^^^^ This is because the % character is reserved. Had the file name been "internal_encoding=.yaml", the URL would have been: file:///usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/doc/pg-0.11.0/ri/PGconn/internal_encoding%3d-i.yaml ^^^ Hence "broken". -- Scott Schmit
