Kevin Falcone: I sort of figured it out
Andy Lester: do tell
Kevin Falcone: the gunzipping is failing
Kevin Falcone: so decoded_content returns undef
Kevin Falcone: and then content just returns the gzip data
Kevin Falcone: we're not passing raise_error so we don't get told about it
Andy Lester: MWAH!
Andy Lester: Thank you
Andy Lester: brilliant/.
Kevin Falcone: my summmary:
Kevin Falcone: that decoded_content needs to kick and scream
Andy Lester: mail to bug-www-mechanize@rt.cpan.org
Kevin Falcone: sadly, our user needs to take this up with HTTP::Message
Andy Lester: so that we can track it.
Kevin Falcone: and we should give a way for users to say "never gzip me"
Andy Lester: ok.
Andy Lester: put aaaall that in the mail
Kevin Falcone: yep
Andy Lester: even if it's just those two lines
Andy Lester: thank you so so so much
Andy Lester: now we can make progress
Andy Lester: AND
Kevin Falcone: I'm getting ready to leave work, but will send something
tonight or in the morning on the train.
Andy Lester: also mention that we need a way to detect if it's gzipped
or not.
Andy Lester: ok thanks.
Andy Lester: actually
Andy Lester: I'll mail it.
Kevin Falcone: yeah, detecting gzip *should* be possible
Kevin Falcone: well
Andy Lester: ok go
Andy Lester: i'll go make a ticke.t
Kevin Falcone: thanks
Kevin Falcone: I'll add comments later
