Package: elinks
Version: 0.10.2-2

i have a cronjob which runs "links -dump http://foo/"; ... it worked fine 
until this week when i upgraded and started getting this:

ELinks: Permission denied

i tried strace and it said this:

open("/dev/stdin", O_RDONLY|O_NOCTTY) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)

i tried adding </dev/null to the invocation, and that produces a new 
error:

ELinks: Unknown file type

finally i did this:

% touch stupid-broken-program
% links -dump http://arctic.org <stupid-broken-program

which produces only the dump and no error... so at least i have a 
workaround.

but it'd be great if elinks didn't depend on a tty stdin.
