GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 770859
Site cannot be shown when no protocol is specified but the port
Last modified: 2018-08-03 20:52:06 UTC
Default protocol not added when the port is specified. I type gnome.org:80 in the address bar and get: URL cannot be shown If i just type gnome.org, it get's transformed to https://www.gnome.org/ that works in other popular browsers like Chromium.
We'd need to edit ephy_embed_utils_normalize_address, but it's not obvious how. SoupURI isn't smart enough to handle this; gnome.org gets detected as the URI scheme (obviously wrong to a human, but not to the URI parser).
