Package: elinks
Version: 0.12~pre5-2
Severity: grave
Tags: upstream, patch

I set severity to 'grave' since it can result in data loss: Elinks
will, without warning and despite being instructed not to do so by
the server, show stale rather than current data.  It even caches
local files without checking their mtime!

This behaviour is optional, but is enabled by default. The default
value of document.cache.ignore_cache_control should be changed to 0:

--- a/src/config/options.inc
+++ b/src/config/options.inc
@@ -506,7 +506,7 @@
                "cache instead of asking the server.")),
 
        INIT_OPT_BOOL("document.cache", N_("Ignore cache-control info from 
server"),
-               "ignore_cache_control", 0, 1,

                N_("Ignore Cache-Control and Pragma server headers. "
                "When set, the document is cached even with 'Cache-Control: "
                "no-cache'.")),
--- END ---

The default setting of document.cache.revalidation_interval (-1) is
also extremely questionable, though it appears that ELinks will at
least revalidate cached documents that have not been loaded during
the current session.

Ben.

   * Acknowledge NMUs, thanks Kumar! (Closes: #617713, Closes: #613475)
   * Disable support for Spidermonkey. Javascript support has always been
     an experimental feature and of limited use (since most websites
     which make extensive use of Javascript usually involve further
     features not available). Mozilla seems to focus on a standalone
     Firefox these days and the libs are treated as second class
     citizens.
   * Update to standards version 3.9.2 (no changes necessary)
