Description Sundance 2006-11-30 17:06:35 UTC
BUG: Konqueror erroneously drops the ljmastersession cookie on Livejournal even if you have the domain .livejournal.com in your authorized cookie domains.

ANALYSIS: Konqueror confuses cookie domain, as specified by the web server in the Set-Cookie HTTP header, and authorized domain, as set by the user in Konqueror's configuration, resulting in cookies getting dropped when the cookie domain doesn't match the authorized domain verbatim, even if the former belongs within the latter.

FIX: Match the authorized domain with the cookie domain's domain instead (yes, 'cookie domain' is a bit of a misnomer to start with, I know).

Patch follows.

Please open a bug for this on http://bug.kde.org/ if there isn't one already, put its url in the URL field of the bug, and reopen when the upstream bug is closed.

Thanks.

Bug submitted to upstream a while ago, actually:
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135175

I got in touch with upstream about it. Turns out the module in question no longer has a dedicated maintainer, and upstream has been sitting on the bug since then.

Is there a way to get a patch into Portage when such a case occurs, or is it more a case of WONTFIX as far as Gentoo goes?

Thanks,
