867	"location regexp does not escape "";"" between ""\Q"" and ""\E"""	kolu4iy@…		"We need to redirect http://www.cancione.net/ame-tateeot;SUI3bFpISzZ1Um8=

trying this:
    location ~* \Q/ame-tateeot\;SUI3bFpISzZ1Um8=\E* {
        return 302 http://.../;
    } # location

redirects only http://www.cancione.net/ame-tateeot\;SUI3bFpISzZ1Um8= - that's right, because symbols between \Q and \E are escaped and used as-is.

Trying this:
    location ~* \Q/ame-tateeot;SUI3bFpISzZ1Um8=\E* {
        return 302 http://.../;
    } # location
cause error:
nginx: [emerg] directive ""location"" has no opening ""{"" in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/blocked:11632

That's not right, because ';' beetween \Q and \E is not escaped and used as part of location directive. We think it's a error.

For override this bug we use next construction:
    location ~* \Q/ame-tateeot\E\;\QSUI3bFpISzZ1Um8=\E* {
        return 302 http://.../;
    } # location
