Hi, it seems there is a problem with content language negotiation on www.debian.org (and also mirrors, like www.fr.debian.org): although my client declares it accepts "fr, en" (so French first), I only get english pages. Even if I select the french page, following a link leads me to an english one (which is coherent to language negotiation though).
To test my client (and because I'm not sure of the language negotiation method used in other websites), I used this protocol: 1. open a netcat listener: $ nc -l -p 8080 2. open http://localhost:8080 in the web client (Konqueror or Firefox), and I get this from Firefox: GET / HTTP/1.1 Host: localhost:8080 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; fr; rv:1.8.0.6) Gecko/20060728 Firefox/1.5.0.6 (Debian-1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.6-3) Accept: text/xml,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/plain;q=0.8,image/png,*/*;q=0.5 Accept-Language: fr-fr,fr;q=0.8,en-us;q=0.5,en;q=0.3 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate Accept-Charset: UTF-8,* Keep-Alive: 300 Connection: keep-alive and "Accept-Language: fr, en" from Konqueror. I tried changing settings, like "it, en", it does change my test but not www.debian.org's behaviour. But, with "it, es", I get Italian, with "es, fr", I get French. All languages, it, es, en, fr, are available as index.LANG.html. So why is the behaviour different from times to times? Sometimes I get the first listed language, sometimes English, or the last one... Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems www.debian.org does something wrong, doesn't it ?
