Package: polipo
Version: 1.0.4+58-1
Severity: normal

I have a server that returns gzipped HTML if the HTTP client claims
supports it, and normal (uncompressed) HTML if it doesn't.

Having made a request from a gzip-supporting client, if I then make
the same request from a non-gzip-supporting client, that second client
will get gzipped data if Polipo is used!

    $ wget -q -O - http://127.0.0.1:8000/ | file -
    /dev/stdin: gzip compressed data, from Unix
    $ env -u http_proxy wget -q -O - http://127.0.0.1:8000/ | file -
    /dev/stdin: HTML document text

Is this a problem with the HTTP daemon, or with Polipo?
