Package: libxerces-c3.1 Version: 3.1.3+debian-1 Severity: wishlist Currently, Xerces-C does not support fetching HTTPS URLs. This is more and more becoming a problem, since a lot of sites have switched to auto-redirecting from HTTP to HTTPS.
Xerces-C using programs and libraries, like XQilla for instance, inherit their protocol capabilities from Xerces-C. Please consider adding --enable-netaccessor-curl to the ./configure invokation of Xerces-C. A simple rebuild of Xerces-C with --enable-netaccessor-curl added and libcurl4-gnutls-dev installed confirms that Xerces-C can now handle HTTPS URLs just fine. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.5.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_AT.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_AT.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages libxerces-c3.1 depends on: ii libc6 2.22-6 ii libcurl3 7.47.0-1 ii libgcc1 1:5.3.1-14 ii libicu55 55.1-7 ii libstdc++6 5.3.1-14 -- CYa, ⡍⠁⠗⠊⠕
