Hi, I have a rather annoying bug with Camino that just won't leave me alone. I have two Network Locations that I use all the time. The one is for normal home usage and has no proxies set up and the other is for work which requires using an autoconfig PAC file (it has to be a PAC file). The problem is that I connect to work using Cisco's VPN tool. In order to connect, I will first have to switch network locations, then connect the VPN. Camino often messes this up because it tries to read the PAC file before the VPN tunnel has been established. There is no other way to do this. The VPN tunnel collapses on Network changed events so I can't simply change the order I do things. Most of the time I just restart Camino and all is fine, but on days like today when I have 10 windows open, each with at least 8 tabs which I actually need to stay open, then I have to resort to firing up Safari. This makes me very anxious because not only is Safari uglier than a bus, but it has an annoying UI (URL autocomplete kills me, no typing in drop downs, etc).
Being a Java developer, I decided to try and fix this myself. How hard could it be? The answer turns out to be: very (perhaps I'm just spoiled by Ant files). After following the instructions for getting a build to compile on the Camino website, I kept running into errors for which Google has no answer. After giving it about three hours without getting any closer to compilation, I have temporarily given up. So this email is an impassioned plea for one of three things: 1) Can someone fix this bug (I filed it over 6 months ago). 2) Can someone help me out with getting Camino setup for development. 3) Can someone tell me the magic key/menu shortcut to get Camino to re-check the PAC file.
