[Surfraw-devel] Bug#530786: surfraw bookmark lookup matches several URLs

Package: surfraw
Version: 2.2.4-1
Severity: normal


If the argument to surfraw matches several bookmarks, all are passed
to the browser seperated by newlines.  This confuses all browsers I
currently have installed, which treat them as a single URL.  Though I
suspect the intention is to only have a single match.

For example,

sr -browser=echo a

with the following bookmarks:

a  a
ab b
ca c

outputs:

a
b
c
