Package: dillo
Version: 3.0-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
By default, Dillo 3.0 does not follow HTTP redirects between second level
domains (foo.com -> bar.com), which breaks URL shorteners and many web
sites. This is controlled by the configuration option "filter_auto_requests"
and defaults to "same_domain".
I've attached two patches. The first modifies the source to "allow_all" by
default and the commented entry in the rc file; the second modifies the rc
file to "allow_all" by default. The first patch is preferable so that
1) the source code defaults match the shipped rc file
2) users who have an existing ~/.dillo/dillorc (and ignore the global
dillorc) will receive the proper default of "allow_all" if they lack a
"filter_auto_requests" entry
