Package: lynx Version: 2.8.9dev1-2+deb8u1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation? 1. I ran: lynx -cookie_save_file=/tmp/cookies google.com 2. It prompted me to allow a cookie and I did so. 3. I exited using 'q'. 4. There was no cookie in /tmp/cookies 5. I ran strace -f -o, there was no mention of an 'open' on that file. I also checked Options to make sure i was not ignoring the cookie. It would be nice if you guys could fix this bug quickly - I require lynx -dump and need to feed the website a cookie. The format of the cookie file is not known therefore I need to save a cookie first. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.4 APT prefers stable APT policy: (1000, 'stable'), (900, 'stable'), (750, 'testing'), (500, 'stable-updates') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages lynx depends on: ii lynx-cur 2.8.9dev1-2+deb8u1 lynx recommends no packages. lynx suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
