Components Repo Broken Links, Due To Forum Software Update?

From the FB2K components repository https://www.foobar2000.org/components, click on the title of a component and it takes you to a page for that component with download and documentation links etc.

The "discussion" link is formatted:
Code: [Select]
https://hydrogenaud.io/forums/index.php?showtopic=<x>
...and results in a 404 error if clicked.  The links should be:
Code: [Select]
https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,<x>

I guess the links were invalidated by an update to the forum software.
It's your privilege to disagree, but that doesn't make you right and me wrong.

Just taken a quick sample, and find some discussion links are the working format and others are not.  Yeah, sure, now I know about it I can work around it by editing the link in-browser, but isn't an admin going to take an interest and fix it for everyone?
