Bug 417633 – www-client/qupzilla-1.2.0 does not work with SOCKS5 proxy

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Agostino Sarubbo 2012-05-26 12:20:31 UTC]

Qupzilla does not work with socks5 proxy.


I'm trying to do: 

ssh -D 1080 $host

and then set in qupzilla proxy socks5 on 127.0.0.1:1080


pesa confirms that does not work; feel free to ask other info about.

Cannot confirm, works for me with localhost:443

[Comment 2 Davide Pesavento (RETIRED) 2012-05-26 15:02:32 UTC]

Confirmed, it does not work for me.

Please provide debugging output so we can report this upstream.

I tried again (using woodpecker as proxy) and it's working just fine now...

Agostino, does it still fail for you?

part of log from upstream irc:

<nowrep> ago: which Qt version do you use with Qupzilla and with Arora? (both have the info in help->about qt)
<nowrep> ago: i found some similiar issue (http://bugs.quassel-irc.org/issues/1160) and it says that qt 4.8.2 fixes it ...
<nowrep> ago: oh yeah, that's true: with Qt 4.8.2 or 4.7.4 it works absolutely without problems .... so the issue is Qt 4.8.1

That might explain why I never had a problem, because I skipped 4.8.1 (I went from 4.8.0 straight to 4.8.2). If this is correct and 4.8.2 fixes this bug, then we need to proceed with stabilization of 4.8.2 ASAP.

Yes, I think we can start with 4.8.2 stabilization, but some arches (at least x86 and ppc) must wait for bug 401615 to be solved before proceeding.

[Comment 7 Michael Palimaka (kensington) 2012-07-20 18:08:14 UTC]

Since 4.8.2 is stable for all the archs of qupzilla, shall we consider this bug fixed or are we going to add a Qt version dependency to prevent users from running into this bug?

Not worth it IMO. We're going to prune 4.8.1 as soon as 4.8.2 is stable on alpha/ia64/sparc too.
