Description Crispin Flowerday (not receiving bugmail) 2002-01-31 21:17:53 UTC 
The site https://galeon-test.flowerday.cx/ has a favicon but it does not
show. The (non-secure) version at http://galeon-test.flowerday.cx/ works
perfectly.

Looking at straces of my web server, it appears that no request is made to
the site for the favicon (disk + memory cache empty).

Jorn ... have fun ;)
Comment 2 Marco Pesenti Gritti 2002-02-13 11:27:34 UTC 
marking as 1.2, please tell if you disagree
Comment 3 Jorn Baayen 2002-02-13 17:31:33 UTC 
Pff. The favicon code uses a lot of gnome-vfs magic to get filenames
and stuff. Rewriting this in mozilla, looking at phil's
mozilla_uri_has_parent code, would take about 100 times as much code.
I'd prefer to wait for vfs to accept SSL uris.
Comment 4 Marco Pesenti Gritti 2002-02-22 12:59:29 UTC 
why gnome-vfs doesnt accept ssl now ? We should verify if recent 
versions does and post a bug report if they doesnt.

Philip, what do you think ? Should we use mozilla ?
Comment 5 Duncan Sargeant 2002-09-11 06:48:03 UTC 
Recompile gnome-vfs with SSL support, and voila - it works.

Doing this breaks licensing, as OpenSSL is incompatible with the LGPL,
which is why you won't get gnome-vfs linked against OpenSSL by default
in most distros.
Comment 6 Marco Pesenti Gritti 2002-10-31 13:41:15 UTC 
wont fix for stable branch. It works on head.
