In Debian, the package in the repo is built with ssl enabled, I prefer to have the new package with ssl too. Is possible to just show a warning opening dillo? Devid On 6/18/09, Jorge Arellano Cid <jcid@dillo.org> wrote:

[...] Generally speaking for Fedora, we won't turn on options which are not turned on by default in upstream - it usually brings divergence from upstream and comments in upstream mailing lists (not this one :) ) like: "That poor distroX turned on --enable-coolness so we are not supporting users of this distro at all."
Turning on SSL in upstream means more pressure for fixing it, usually :). But I am reading dillo-dev long enough to know it's not that easy.
Reading forums served on https is handy, so I understand if a user wants to have it enabled.
Considering that making a user compile dillo is currently a complex operation (the apparently simple --enable-ssl switch is complex because of FLTK2 installation issues), I'd try to provide the packaged option as an alternative to the main package (not SSL-enabled).
Something like:
--------------------------------------------------------------- Debian:
Jaunty, Karmic (click here)
Fedora:
F11, F12 (click here)
--------------------------------------------------------------- With alpha HTTPS support: * Note that this is NOT checking certificates, may get stuck in asking dialogs, but will let you read https forums.
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK
Debian:
Jaunty, Karmic (click here)
Fedora:
F11, F12 (click here) ---------------------------------------------------------------
Obviously the safe option is not to offer ssl-enabled packages, but that will mainly have the effect of no https-dpi at all.
I'm not quite sure which one would be best. Comments?
-- Cheers Jorge.-
