dillo-0.8.6-rc3.tar.bz2
by Jorge Arellano Cid April 6, 2006

April 6, 2006

Hi there! The new dillo-0.8.6-rc3 tarball is ready for download. Get it from: http://www.dillo.org/download/dillo-0.8.6-rc3.tar.bz2 Finally I decided to include a big patch for the MIME type detection and its handling. This is an important change in the way Dillo treats its incoming files (HTTP streams). The point: as this release comes with a new downloads GUI, and downloads are mainly the focus, I disliked the situation where a Web server "lied" with regard to the Content/Type of a file. For instance, www.linuxpackages.net has many packages and a system of distributed mirrors. Some of these mirrors serve .tgz files with "text/plain" HTTP-Content/Type labels, with the end result of Dillo trying to render the .tgz as text instead of offering a file-save dialog. This patch fixes this. Now Dillo uses its detected Content/Type instead of the one sent by the remote server (there's also a bug fix in the detection code). e.g. http://www.software-mirror.com/linuxpackages/Slackware-10.2/ X11/kpacman/kpacman-0.3.3-i486-1ron.tgz (all in one line) Try it with dillo <= rc2. It will try to render. FWIW, the remote server answer begins with: HTTP request sent, awaiting response... HTTP/1.0 200 OK Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2006 15:53:23 GMT Server: Apache Last-Modified: Wed, 12 Oct 2005 11:31:54 GMT ETag: "262819-28292-f8a5de80" Accept-Ranges: bytes Content-Length: 164498 >>> Content-Type: text/plain Age: 95 X-Cache: HIT from sa8.woowy.com Connection: keep-alive Length: 164,498 (161K) [text/plain] 200 OK I'm a bit surprised nobody complained about this bug before, but I guess with the download support being as crude as it was, it's no wonder only a few people used it. ;-) Bottom line: PLease test this extensively! -- Cheers Jorge.-

dillo-0.8.6-rc2
by Jorge Arellano Cid March 30, 2006

March 30, 2006

Hi there! The new dillo-0.8.6-rc2 is ready for download. Get it from: http://www.dillo.org/download/dillo-0.8.6-rc2.tar.bz2 BTW, those trying to build FLTK2 from sources, please get r4825 (weekly snapshots). Current subversion may not compile. You have been warned. Please remember to send feedback!

CVS and rc3
by Jorge Arellano Cid March 29, 2006

March 29, 2006

Hi there, While I review/make other patches that may go in rc3, the CVS already has the patch for downloads and for handling buggy pages with multiple BODY and HTML elements in a page. e.g. http://www.commondreams.org/headlines06/0324-07.htm BTW, I'm taking some more time with the 0.8.6-rc process because I really want this to be the last GTK1-based dillo (at least by me ;). Any maintainer volunteer for this branch? -- Cheers Jorge.-

dillo on cygwin native
by David Dombrowsky March 24, 2006

March 24, 2006

So far the only easily compilable web browser I can find for the cygwin platform is dillo. It compiles and starts up just fine, but any time it has to use the dpid daemon, it dies. The source of the error has something to do with the socket handling in the source for dpid. Does anyone have any experience building dillo on native cygwin (cygwin-X)? Also, what about the fltk2 toolkit? I can't get that to build in cygwin either. I know that's another project, but dillo directly depends on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. One of my desktops is empty and I need to put a browser there. -David Dombrowsky

dillo and no-cache
by digitek March 23, 2006

March 23, 2006

Hello All. Nice browser! I noticed 0.8.5 loads pages from cache regardless of the 'content=no-cache' meta tag. Near as I can tell from the mailing list, this is by design. I also found the no-cache patch for 0.8.2 and applied to 0.8.5 (by hand). Is this the best way right now to get cache control working?

[article] trimming down autoconf's configure scripts by using pkg-config
by Enrico 'nekrad' Weigelt March 23, 2006

March 23, 2006

Hi folks, here's a little article I wrote about an approach for encapsulating platform dependent stdc-lib fixes (ie. some platforms have broken string handling, etc) behind pkg-config. It is mostly directed on autoconf (It is the one I have most of my daily trouble with), but of course the approach works with other buildsystems, even plain make, too. The permanent URL of the article: * http://www.metux.de/articles/coding/trimming-down-autoconf-with-pkg-config I'm also currently working on concrete wrapper packages: * http://wiki.metux.de/public/OSS_QM_Taskforce/projects/stdc-pkgconfig Comments and suggestions please to the Maillist: oss-qm-discuss(a)metux.de Thanks. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt == metux IT service phone: +49 36207 519931 www: http://www.metux.de/ fax: +49 36207 519932 email: info(a)metux.de cellphone: +49 174 7066481 ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Progress on porting to FLTK2?
by Roberto C. Sanchez March 22, 2006

March 22, 2006

Hello, I became interested in Dillo a while back and even made some small contributions and helped fix some bugs, but I was eventually disuaded by the fact that Dillo uses GTK+. I was happy when I heard that Dillo would be ported to FLTK. Has there been any progress on this? I would like to start contributing again, but I have not seen anything other than a few mailing list posts in the archive and a mention of it on the "Current Plans" page. -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sanchez http://familiasanchez.net/~roberto
