Re: Konqueror and Secure pages
If you look at the package description for kdelibs3_crypto it says "...that
need to be linked against OpenSSL" plus the Debian KDE site provides the
openssl package in the crypto directory. From these two observations I
assumed it was necessary. It may not be in fact - I've since discovered that
the WWWoffle cache program was blocking access to HTTPS sites - though only
when used with Konq, not with Netscape. I just set HTTPS sites as No Proxy in
the broswer settings now. I haven't removed the OpenSSL package so I'm not
sure if it's needed.
