Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the [email-masked] mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

The goto-address minor-mode does not match the urls of the emacs official
online documentation, because they use parentesis!
For example, here it only matches until the "?"
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/cgi-bin/info2www?(elisp)Using%20Interactive

I tried to fix the regex
(setq goto-address-url-regexp
  (concat "\\b\\(s?https?\\|ftp\\|file\\|gopher\\|news\\|"
	  "telnet\\|wais\\):\\(//[-a-zA-Z0-9_.]+:"
	  "[0-9]*\\)?[-a-zA-Z0-9_=?#$@~`%&*+|\\/.,()]*"
	  "[-a-zA-Z0-9_=#$@~`%&*+|\\/()]"))

and now it displays well but when I click a url, it seems it is still
using the old regex
