Hi dbb,
I am another user of the midori package.

I am not sure that the bug you describe is really the one experienced
by the original submitter of this bug report.
If the original issue has vanished (as it seems to me), maybe we should
re-title the bug report...

I seem to be experiencing similar issues.
The encryption verification status seems to randomly switch between
"verified and encrypted connection" and "Not verified" when re-loading
the page by clicking on the little-locker/(i) icon.

Also, there does not seem to be a way to accept self-signed
certificates or certificates which are signed by a non-famous CA.
Midori seems to lack a proper certificate manager.

Dear midori maintainer(s), can you reproduce the bug?
Could you please forward it upstream, if appropriate?

Thanks for your time.

As already said multiple times, midori lacks any kind of correct x509
certificates management and verification, and upstream is well aware of
that. But this has nothing to do with this bug.

Sorry, I am not aware of those multiple times when it was said that
Midori lacks x509 certificate management and verification.
Could you please be more specific?

If you refer to bug #607497, well, this is not really clear to me.
That bug is marked as found and fixed in the same version, and the
report is claimed to be forwarded to a URL that currently leads me to a
404 error...
Anyway, that bug report looks like a single time, not multiple times...
;-)

> and upstream is well aware of

I apologize, but I didn't know that.
I hadn't found any sign of that upstream awareness (apart from a
forwarded URL that was 404ing me, I mean...).

> But this has nothing to do with this bug.

Do you mean that the issues I am experiencing have nothing to do with
the bug reported by the original submitter (that is to say, the failed
SSL handshake)?
I agree: this is why I wrote

| If the original issue has vanished (as it seems to me), maybe we should
| re-title the bug report...


What is the best course of action, in your opinion?
Should I file the lack of SSL certificate management and verification
as a separate bug report, so that you can properly forward it upstream?
Or do you prefer re-titling and clarifying bug #607497 ?
Should this bug (#595813) be closed, in the meanwhile?

Why exactly would you retitle the bug report? If this is related, then
just follow up, if this is a new bug, just open a new one...

This is already done, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/midori/+bug/706857

Yes.

> Should this bug (#595813) be closed, in the meanwhile? 

Maybe, but please let the original reporter do it.

You are right and I normally agree with this line of reasoning, except
that, in the present case, I was following up to a follow up...   ;-)

OK.

Fine, I'll add some information to bug #607497, then.

Sure, I usually try to avoid hi-jacking bug reports!   ;-)

However, since at least three people (you, dbb, and me) don't seem to
experience the issues reported by the original submitter, I think that
he should be contacted and kindly requested to check whether he's still
able to reproduce the bug. In the meanwhile the bug could be tagged
"unreproducible" and "moreinfo".
In case the original submitter does not reply in a reasonable time
frame, I think the bug report will have to be closed...


Thanks a lot for your time and your kindness!

2011-09-10 Thread dbb
I think I may be experiencing this bug or possibly a similar one. It
seems that midori always says that any SSL connection is "unverified"
at first (for all sites I've tried). On Twitter, for example, the URL
bar was colored red, and an information icon appeared on the right
side of the bar. When the pointer was hovered above the info icon, a
tooltip with the text "unverified" or so appeared. I clicked on this
icon, the page reloaded, and the info icon was replaced with a key
icon and tooltip changed to "verified and encrypted connection". On
some other sites, clicking on the icon would reload the page, but it
stayed "unverified". Later, I went back to some of these sites (like
gmail, duckduckgo) and they all had the verified key icon.
