Same here, WWW::Mechanize 1.16 on Debian Testing. Is there a simple fix for this? -LM

Actually, it's included in Debian testing: apt-get install libwww-mechanize-perl solved the problem. Sorry for 'bugging'. -LM [guest - Sun Dec 18 18:51:37 2005]: Show quoted text

I guess I should have addded that while I'm running Debian testing, I'm having this problem with a version of Perl that I built from source. So it doesn't help me that there's a prebuilt debian package. Please reopen this bug. Also, since I originally opened it, why wasn't I contacted when it was closed?

I sent a patch to Andy two days ago (which he applied) which fixes t/live/back.t. The problem with that test was that the second link was https:// instead of http://. Also fixed two tests that can fail if someone has a "search" domain in their resolv.conf tied to a domain that allows wildcard addressing.

I was installing WWW::Mechanize just now and had the same problem with t/live/back.t. The explanation was clear, the test was trying to follow the second link on google.com's page, but the point is when you have a gmail account (like I do) three extra links are added at the top of google's page (Personalized Home, etc.), leaving the second link a https link which fails the test. After some code examination I added the url_regex attribute $mech->follow_link( n=>3, url_regex => qr(http://)); and the test ran safely. Thanks for a great package! It totally rocks!
