Package: netsurf-gtk Version: 2.1-2.1 Severity: minor
Out of the 10 browsers I tried netsurf is the only one that cannot open a local file specified on the command line such as: netsurf ~/Downloads/page.html It requires to prefix the file name with the file:// prefix which makes specifying local files by relative path problematic if not impossible. Since local file names should be distinct from URL schemes (unless specified with multiple slashes) there is no reason not to support opening files directly. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.4 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'testing'), (300, 'unstable'), (295, 'experimental'), (290, 'stable-i386'), (280, 'testing-i386'), (270, 'unstable-i386'), (150, 'experimental-i386'), (70, 'oldstable-i386'), (70, 'oldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-3-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages netsurf-gtk depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.22.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.10.2-6 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcairo2 1.8.8-2 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libcurl3 7.18.2-8lenny4 Multi-protocol file transfer libra ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-2 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.3.7-2+lenny1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.2-1 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.22.4-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.18.9-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libhubbub0 0.0.1-1.1 HTML5 Parser ii libjpeg62 6b-14 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii liblcms1 1.17.dfsg-1+lenny2 Color management library ii libnsbmp0 0.0.1-1 NetSurf BMP decoder ii libnsgif0 0.0.1-1.1 NetSurf GIF decoder ii libpango1.0-0 1.26.2-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libparserutils0 0.0.1-1 A utility library for parser build ii libpng12-0 1.2.27-2+lenny2 PNG library - runtime ii librsvg2-2 2.26.0-1 SAX-based renderer library for SVG ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8n-1 SSL shared libraries ii libxml2 2.7.7.dfsg-1 GNOME XML library ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages netsurf-gtk recommends: ii mime-support 3.44-1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap netsurf-gtk suggests no packages. -- debconf-show failed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
