By default the ttkHyperlinkLabels for 'system' and 'station' names have their 'url' members set to the functions in EDMarketConnector.App. The EDDB one used to override the function as it had to do that special name -> EDDB ID lookup from systems.p. When I changed the code to not need that any more I didn't fully understand what these overrides were. After updating the EDDB code I then made sure the same logic was also in the other plugins which meant they *also* set static strings, overriding the call to the EDMarketConnector.App functions (which chain through to the current plugin providers). Unfortunately I didn't quite update the EDSM code enough causing journal_entry() code to *not* set a new system 'url' despite changing the 'text'. This meant that only CAPI updates (so docking and login) caused the URL to change, despite updating the 'text' to the correct system name. Rather than have everything setting static strings just do away with the overrides as they're not needed!
