Re: Configure DBext mac for SQLite

2017-07-25 Thread Brian Libgober
Managed to get the DBI interface to work. Had to recompile my vim against a 
version of perl with the necessary packaged installed, after doing that it 
worked immediately.

No, actually the "oops" was an expression of embarrassment at having taken
the title of the article as its content, just as the OP warned not to do.

I get SeaMonkey & Firefox straight from https://ftp.mozilla.org/ but
of course I use the linux-x86_64 version. Maybe the blacklists are
different for each platform?

Re: Vim nightly download for Windows 64 in Firefox reports "Deceptive Site" and marked as being dangerous

2017-07-25 Thread Igor Forca
Now I have also tested on "Ubuntu 17.10 Daily" and using "Firefox Nightly" and 
I get the same security warning. I somehow expected this, so in this case 
probably your browser is something special, you may not use default browser 
settings.

Is there anyone else able to reproduce this problem?

Re: Vim nightly download for Windows 64 in Firefox reports "Deceptive Site" and marked as being dangerous

2017-07-25 Thread Igor Forca
Tony,
I don't think this is a Firefox bug. I downloaded Vim v8.0.0765 two days ago, 
and now this version also reports "Deceptive Site". Most probably definitions 
for "evil" web pages have been silently updated. On my PC default Firefox 
settings are: Tools | Options | Security tab and have all three enabled:
- Block dangerous and deceptive content
- Block dangerous downloads
- Warn you about unwanted and uncommon software
If I disable all of them the "Deceptive Site" message goes away.

In my humble opinion somehow Vim's download site 
github-production-release-asset-2e65be.s3.amazonaws.com got on the blacklist.

It is interesting according to your words Firefox Nightly (I haven't tested) is 
working fine.

Well, of course github is a site which "tries to make you install
software", but of course it is software that you want to get in the
first place.

Using either Firefox 56.0a1 or SeaMonkey 2.53a1 (both of which are
"bleeding-edge nightlies" built from Mozilla's latest development
source) I can download this zipfile with no alert dialog. The "source"
of the download in the Download Manager is your
github-production-release-asset- (etc.) URL. But I am on Linux64 so of
course I cannot install the program to see if it works — or only in
Wine which mightn't be "the real thing". Also, my security preferences
are probably other than yours. In my SeaMonkey preferences, under
"Privacy & Security", both "Safe Browsing" checkboxes are ticked, viz.
"Block reported attack sites (malware, viruses)" and "Block reported
web forgeries (Phishing)". In Firefox preferences, near the bottom of
the "Privacy & Security" tab, all three of "Block dangerous and
deceptive content", "Block dangerous downloads" and "Warn you about
unwanted and uncommon software" are ticked.

I suspect that you might be a victim of some Firefox bug, recently
"fixed" in the 56.0a1 Nightly source but which wasn't yet fixed in
Fx54 when it graduated from "beta" to "release" some weeks ago. This
is only a guess, however, and you might want to search the Mozilla bug
tracker, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ about recently fixed Firefox
privacy & security bugs in order to make your own opinion about it.


Best regards,
Tony.
