Hmmm....
Looking at _trivial_http_get:
if ($code =~ /^30[1237]/ && $buf =~ /\012Location:\s*(\S+)/) {
# redirect
So it certainly seems like it's *trying to handle it.
As I recall (it was a late night when I had an application that wasn't
working), I had single stepped down into the guts of LWP::Simple and
realized that it was returning a failure indicator when encountering a 302
status. I had assumed that this was intended behavior, but now that I
look at the pod of what we've currently got installed (1.32), it sure
seems like it should work.
I'll look into this a bit to see if I can recreate it, but for now, let's
chalk it up to either (1) something that's been fixed since the version
that I was using at the time, or (2) I'm just out of my head.
More likely the latter...
Sorry for the confusion.
