Package: lynx-cur
Version: 2.8.7dev8-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
Lynx is having problems under X accessing certain sites, most notably
google.
The following sites fail when run under X but succeed if I do
'DISPLAY= lynx url':
www.google.co.uk (or any google site)
http://kenmacleod.blogspot.com/ (or any blogspot site)

[ actually, I've just tested with privoxy turned off, and flickr works now ]
They generally fail with 400 Bad Request, except files.wordpress.com
gives 500 Internal Server Error
I suspect it may be related to the Accept: header. The two attached
files are the headers sent when run with and without X. If you diff
them, the main difference seems to be lots and lots of Accept:
headers, presumably for all the X-based viewers I've got
installed. Maybe this is overflowing a limit on some web servers?
I obtained the attached files with:
xterm1$ nc -l -p 9393 > lynxheaders.withx
xterm2$ lynx http://myhost:9393/
xterm1$ nc -l -p 9393 > lynxheaders.nox
xterm2$ DISPLAY= lynx http://myhost:9393/
This bug has been around for a while, since at least the previous
version of lynx-cur in sid.
