Package: luakit
Version: 2010.09.24+halloween-2
Severity: normal
Hello,
The config file "globals.lua" contains
-- Global variables for luakit
globals = {
homepage = "http://luakit.org/";,
-- homepage = "http://github.com/mason-larobina/luakit";,
scroll_step = 40,
zoom_step = 0.1,
max_cmd_history = 100,
max_srch_history = 100,
-- http_proxy = "http://example.com:3128";,
download_dir = luakit.get_special_dir("DOWNLOAD") or (os.getenv("HOME") .. "/downloads"),
default_window_size = "800x600",
}
However, setting the proxy variable by editing the string and
uncommenting the http_proxy setting does not actually make luakit use
a proxy. The actual proxy setting is done via the ":proxy" command
or by creating a file like "$HOME/.local/share/luakit/proxylist"
containing a line like "* my_proxy http://example.com:3128";
This may also be a bug in the program. The current version also
ignores the proxy environment variable so the bug could be elsewhere
than in the documentation!
Thanks and regards,
Kapil.
