A couple of problems:
- There is a blank line before the .TH line in wwwoffled.man which
causes (at least) the debian man program to spew out a blank
page at the beginning.
- Due to an oversight, I didn't have a DontCompress section in my
config file (I hadn't run the upgrade-config.pl script yet),
and the wwwoffles processes that were forked died of SIGSEGV in
NotCompressed() when DontCompressExt->nitems was accessed
(DontCompressExt is NULL at that point).
IMHO an application should never core dump if the config file isn't
correct (I believe a typo in "DontCompress" will have the same
result), and it's not that straightforward to figure out what the
matter is... In fact, I believe an app should _never_ core dump,
period.
Perhaps the result of reading in the config file should be
sanity-checked before proceeding?
- Running convert-cache (OK, I know, not needed when upgrading from
2.6[ab] :-) I get the following error:
convert-cache[10235] Fatal: Configuration file error at configfile.c:98; Expecting a
URL, got '/local/dontget/replacement.gif'.
There are three places where that string occurs in the config file,
namely replacement-dontget-image, replacement-webbug-image (in ModifyHTML)
and replacement (in DontGet).
