Package: apt Version: 0.1.9 In methods/http/http.cc, apt-get's http method reports "http: Bad header line" if there is no space in any given header.
This is not compliant with the HTTP standard, as I understand it. Spaces are conventionally used, but are not required. I am looking at http://www.w3c.org/Protocols/HTTP/1.1/draft-ietf-http-v11-spec-rev-06.txt, section 4.2. The HTTP cache that I am behind is appending "Connection:close" (with no space!) to the headers. I will report this bug to the vendor as well. For now, I just hacked it to ignore errors in the headers for my own machine. I don't have time to write a more well-thought out patch at this time, but I hope someone can deal with this. --Josh -- Josh Wilmes ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) | http://www.hitchhiker.org
