Description
There are inconsistencies with colon encoding in different languages.
For the following input:
type:docker
name:cassandra
version: sha256:244fd47e07d1004f0aed9c
output:
java implementation: pkg:docker/cassandra@sha256%3A244fd47e07d1004f0aed9c
go implementation: pkg:docker/cassandra@sha256:244fd47e07d1004f0aed9c
python implementation: pkg:docker/cassandra@sha256:244fd47e07d1004f0aed9c
As we can see, the colon : will be encoded as %3A in java implementaion, but not in other languages.
According to the specification of purl
the '#', '?', '@' and ':' characters must NOT be encoded when used as separators. They may need to be encoded elsewhere
the ':' scheme and type separator does not need to and must NOT be encoded. It is unambiguous unencoded everywhere
I think : must NOT be encoded.
