Bug#398162: privoxy: Unclear URLs specified in README.Debian
Moin Helge! Helge Kreutzmann schrieb am Sonntag, den 12. November 2006: I just installed privoxy and now read the documentation to find out how to configure it. I start out with README.Debian. First, only local files are referenced, but then: To change the default, go to http://p.p/edit-actions-list?f=global (this can also be reached from http://p.p/show-status via the global.action edit link) and modify the default to your needs. You However, no such domain p.p exists. Why don't you try this out (with http://localhost:8118 configured as your HTTP proxy)? It does exist, because it is handled internally by privoxy. I assume that this is some kind of abbreviation, however, I can not see which one. It's an abbreviation of config.privoxy.org, which is handled internally by privoxy. Since the README.Debian is not too large (yet), could you either explain this abbreviation or (better yet) expand it in the few times you use it? I don't think that this is necessary, because config.privoxy.org gives some reader the wrong idea that privoxy is configured by some remote instance at the privoxy.org servers. p.p shows clearer that this isn't a routed hostname, but handled internally.

I did try it, but of course, before starting the proxy (I intended to configure it first). I lowered the severity to wishlist, so this essentially boils down to adding a note that for this configuration to work, privoxy must be running already. Greetings Helge P.S.

Package: privoxy Version: 3.0.5-beta-3 Severity: normal I just installed privoxy and now read the documentation to find out how to configure it. I start out with README.Debian. First, only local files are referenced, but then: To change the default, go to http://p.p/edit-actions-list?f=global (this can also be reached from http://p.p/show-status via the global.action edit link) and modify the default to your needs.

Debian is not too large (yet), could you either explain this abbreviation or (better yet) expand it in the few times you use it? This is a normal bug, because right now I have no idea how to configure this (personally, I'd prefer configuration done by edit of files instead of using a browser, but this certainly would be a wishlist issue). -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17.7-grsec-cz01 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages privoxy depends on: ii adduser 3.99Add and remove users and groups ii libc62.3.6.ds1-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libpcre3 6.4-2 Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expressi ii logrotate3.7.1-3 Log rotation utility Versions of packages privoxy recommends: ii doc-base 0.7.21 utilities to manage online documen -- no debconf information -- Dr. Helge Kreutzmann [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dipl.-Phys. http://www.helgefjell.de/debian.php 64bit GNU powered gpg signed mail preferred Help keep free software libre: http://www.ffii.de/ signature.asc Description: Digital signature
