Huh? I was not talking about APT. I also don't think it's an apache problem, I blame nginx for this crap. I reported this bug here since I assumed that the maintainers here are doing some basic QA work and can dispatch the issue accordingly. And regarding multiview, see below. Even when I set Accept-Encoding: to identity, this does not change a thing. You might argue that SHOULD!=MUST but it's still a broken way to handle this situation, IMHO. | If an Accept-Encoding field is present in a request, and if the server | cannot send a response which is acceptable according to the | Accept-Encoding header, then the server SHOULD send an error response | with the 406 (Not Acceptable) status code.
