Package: avfs
Version: 1.0.6-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I wanted to access a remote ftp/http server and it doesn't work as
documented in /usr/share/doc/avfs/README.gz
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
mountavfs # creates the ~/.avfs dir and I can access compressed files
like cat ~/.avfs/usr/share/doc/avfs/README.gz#
from README.gz: "/#ftp:ftp.funet.fi/pub/Linux - anonymous ftp"
ls ~/.avfs/#ftp:ftp.fau.de # throws error file or dir not found
* What outcome did you expect instead?
If some extensions don't work any more then they should be remove from
the documentation.
The devuan bug is at https://bugs.devuan.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=474 .
Mark Hindley <[email protected]> asked me to report it upstream as you
can see at the link above.
(I tried to report it with reportbug --bts debian avfs but I got a
bug from reportbug, relaying denied. I reported it to devuan. Now I
use plain mail with the draft from reportbug --bts debian avfs)

As for http(s) it seems http is very limited and https not implemented
at all.
