Package: polipo Version: 1.0.5~20091115+54-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: upstream
It seems that polipo understands Range requests only if they have exactly one range. This issue affected "bzr export", which complained as follows. Got a 200 response when asking for multiple ranges, does your server at 127.0.0.1:8080 support range requests? Unfortunately I cannot reliably reproduce the bzr behaviour, but I can demonstrate the basic behaviour with curl. The upstream web server supports multiple ranges without polipo: $ env -u http_proxy curl -svo/dev/null -r0-0,-1 http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/test/1meg.test * Couldn't find host mirror.internode.on.net in the .netrc file; using defaults * About to connect() to mirror.internode.on.net port 80 (#0) * Trying 150.101.135.3... connected * Connected to mirror.internode.on.net (150.101.135.3) port 80 (#0) > GET /pub/test/1meg.test HTTP/1.1 > Range: bytes=0-0,-1 > User-Agent: W3C standards are important.
