Indeed, I now see the option in Sid. For my previous mail I checked both, Jessie and Sid in parallel and looked up the man-page and -h output on Jessie instead of Sid. Sorry for that mistake. On Sid you can find it under Setup -> Network options -> HTTP options -> Header options -> Fake Firefox > with all 3 below: > > $ links2 -socks-proxy 127.0.0.1:9051 -only-proxies 1 -http.referer 0 > -http.fake-user-agent "3 com" https://wtfismyip.com/headers/ > > $ links2 -socks-proxy 127.0.0.1:9051 -only-proxies 1 -http.referer 0 > -http.fake-user-agent "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:45.0) > Gecko/20100101 Firefox/45.0" https://wtfismyip.com/headers/ > > $ links2 -socks-proxy 127.0.0.1:9051 -only-proxies 1 -http.referer 0 > -http.fake-user-agent " " https://wtfismyip.com/headers/ Thanks for these more detailed examples. That helped a lot to understand where the issue is. I can confirm that these combinations of options behave as if -http.fake-firefox would have been set to 1. Dropping the "-only-proxies 1" make the remainder work as expected. Unfortunately I found no obvious reason in the source code why these two options should be connected. Will forward the issue to upstream. > dpkg --reconfigure Nope. That has nothing to do with this issue.
