Package: epiphany-browser
Version: 2.30.3-1
Severity: minor
Hi,
Epiphany fails to download or save links (pdf files e.g.) from
http://arxiv.org website. Apparently (as said by arXiv website), it does
not supply a proper user-agent. A 403 error is returned. This happens
only from the contextual menu (right click) "Download/Save as link",
direct actions work fine.
To reproduce, go for example at http://arxiv.org/list/math/new and try
to download a pdf from the context menu.
Cheers,
Denis

Hi, this seems to work in the latest version. The user agent was
fixed up a while back.
