Safauri: Hunt down those wild new apps

Accero (I think) had asked for any new and exciting apps we'd found.  I said to check the newest additions to the AUR.

Turns out you can't do that on the AUR.

So here is a little app which does.  If you are feeling bored or want to run the newest and most unstable software, this is for you.

Make a website that displays the results.

Yeah, can an admin please change Acecero's name to Accero?

Now that would be funny, can I see that happen?

Xyne, why did you have to say something funny?  Original post now locked for humor.  My hands are tied, I can not edit it.

Seems like it doesn't work behind a proxy or maybe just mine.
Churns out errors that look like that might be the problem at any rate .

Re: Safauri: Hunt down those wild new apps

It does not care about proxies and hands all that off to the Python urllib library.

Could you echo "$http_proxy" and make sure it does not have a trailing slash?  From the urllib docs:

% http_proxy="http://www.someproxy.com:3128"
% export http_proxy
% python ...

It thinks your port is "8080/", leading me to believe there is a trailing slash in $http_proxy.

Re: Safauri: Hunt down those wild new apps

Yeah, there was a trailing slash, removed it and it works now. Thanks .
