I finally found time to update my repository, and it appears the documentation
changes from my patch (removing contrib/python/README.Python and adding
doc/python.txt to replace it) weren't committed. Here are those diffs again.

Hello,

I agree, it's a good idea to add this to the references.  It's been added
as a "CONFIRM" reference and will be on the CVE web site later today.

That makes sense.

Good question. I formatted it to resemble output from the pydoc program
(and the interactive Python interpreter's help system) so it would have
the look of other Python API documentation that should be familiar to
many Python programmers; installing it as-is may be suitable for that
target audience. But if it would be preferable to conform to the look of
the rest of the ELinks docs then perhaps I should rework doc/python.txt
(and contrib/python/elinks_maint.py) to use AsciiDoc markup instead?

That sounds fine to me, and I certainly won't mind revisiting this
if there's a need for HTML at some point in the future.

Hi,

the current version fails to build on GNU/kFreeBSD.

It have to include <sys/types.h> before using off_t, see bellow.

Thanks in advance

I've merged the fix[1] from elinks-0.12 into the elinks-0.11 git tree.
Hopefully I will have time to release a follow up soon with this and
other fixes from the development tree.
