Hi,
I am still not sure what benefit this will bring to the IPFire users. What will it bring to addition of squidGuard and the "URL Filter"?
I know that it can remove ads within the HTML, but as pretty much most of the websites are encrypted where I think this would be useful, what is the point?
Technically I have nothing against it. I just cannot see where the benefit is to build and maintain this.

Hi,
indeed. Never bundle a library. Never. Never. Never.
PCRE had some severe security issues recently and I assume that these are not fixed in the privoxy release tarball. If we fix the issues in pcre it will automatically be fixed in privoxy too when dynamically linked.
Thanks - I thought of something like that but wasn't sure.
Prior to my question I deleted "--disable-dynamic-pcre" from the privoxy lfs-file and will keep it this way.
By the way - feedback is sparse, as ever - but how are the chances of 'privoxy' becoming an official addon? Anything I could improve?
Best, Matthias
