Package: polipo Version: 1.0.4.1-1.1 Severity: wishlist I seed ~/.polipo-forbidden based on the "adblockplus" database[0]. I updated this for the first time since 10 Jun 2010. Shortly after this, I noticed that 1) polipo doesn't respond to most requests from my browser[1]; and 2) polipo.log shows a new (I think) error:
Couldn't compile regex: 13. Since this wasn't very helpful and "13" didn't appear to be a line number, I checked the source. The message comes from forbidden.c[2]; 13 is the value returned by regcomp(3). The regcomp(3) manpage indicates that regerror(3) can be used to generate a more detailed (i.e. useful) error message. Please use it.
