Bug#674053: httrack: nonsensical charset in Accept-Charset: header

2012-05-22 Thread Piotr Engelking
Package: httrack
Version: 3.45.4-1
Severity: minor

Httrack sends the following Accept-Charset: header:

  Accept-Charset: iso-8859-1, iso-8859-*;q=0.9, utf-8;q=0.66, *;q=0.33

As a result, the program claims preference for the non-existent
iso-8859-* character set, which isn't particularly useful. The author
apparently expects the asterisk to act as a wildcard here, but it isn't
the case - only standalone * is special (see RFC 2616).

Please remove the useless iso-8859-* charset from the Accept-Charset:
header.

You may also very well consider removing the Accept-Charset: header
altogether, as most browsers do not send it anymore, see
