Tested now https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Features.html on newly installed Emacs-w3m. It redirected correctly to https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Features.html . Do you still have problems? I do not. Maybe there is a diference between foreign distro and GuixSD. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

The links aren't broken, but implemented in a very… special way: ~ λ curl https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Features.html <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8" /> <title>Page has moved! — GNU Guix</title> <noscript><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=../en/html_node/Features.html"></noscript> </head> <body onload="window.location = '../en/html_node/Features.html';"> […] I.e. inject arbitrary code into the user's browser and if it catches us, fall back to http-equiv hackery. Not good! The fix is to send out real (HTTP 307/302) redirections, but the problem might be that gnu.org won't let us.

Exactly. Can anyone reproduce the problem, though? Both emacs-w3m and IceCat follow redirects just fine for me. That said, we should at least change the references used on the web site (home page, help page, etc.) to use the “real” URL with /en. Any takers?

Any > takers? Hi Ludo’, If you're having problems reproducing the issue, it may be because some security setting I have for my browsing (some setting in emacs-w3m and some extension in firefox). If it really is necessary, I can try to trace it, but I have each 'loaded up' quite heavily and it seems that since Tobias has already identified the cause as an HTML "special"ness, there's no need. BTW, for some reason debbugs.gnu.org didn't automatically subscribe me to this thread, even though I authored it. You seem to have actively cc'ed me, but I needed to navigate to the bugreport URI to see the input from Tobias and Quiliro. -- hkp://keys.gnupg.net CA45 09B5 5351 7C11 A9D1 7286 0036 9E45 1595 8BC0 ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread
