Description Milan Kerslager 2003-02-01 05:11:18 EST

Second public beta has an old version of elinks (elinks-0.3.2-4.i386.rpm). Use
latest stable release please:

http://elinks.or.cz/download.html
http://elinks.or.cz/download/elinks-0.4.2.tar.bz2

Change the URL in SPEC file header to point to proper page too. See:

Comment 1 Tim Waugh 2003-02-01 06:51:02 EST

To fix what bug, specifically?

Comment 2 Milan Kerslager 2003-02-01 10:07:56 EST

Latest stable release has UTF-8 support and I'm able to work with Bugzilla too.
Old version has a bug somewhere in cookies code as Bugzilla is not the only Web
I can not work with (try to login and then select My Bugs for example). New
version seems to be better in other ways too (colors in X environment for example).

Do you need more reasons?

Here is modified RPM, SRPM and SPEC file:

http://ftp.pslib.cz/pub/users/Milan.Kerslager/RedHat-8.0/RPMS/elinks-0.4.2-0.1.8x.i386.rpm
http://ftp.pslib.cz/pub/users/Milan.Kerslager/RedHat-8.0/SRPMS/elinks-0.4.2-0.1.8x.src.rpm
http://ftp.pslib.cz/pub/users/Milan.Kerslager/RedHat-8.0/SPEC/elinks.spec

You can find my packages here too (daily mirror):

Comment 3 Milan Kerslager 2003-02-01 11:10:57 EST

Changing the Summary to show the main reason for update (UTF-8 support).

Comment 4 Tim Waugh 2003-02-05 05:54:27 EST

Comment 5 Jay Turner 2003-02-10 08:06:00 EST
