AFAIK emacs/w3m basically uses 'w3m -dump' to get the rendered page. One difference between interactive usage and using -dump is that w3m won't ask when there is e.g. a certificate or cookie problem. Instead it will fall back to some default. > This works on alpinelinux, so it seems to be an OpenBSD port issue. > > Any thoughts on what it might be in or how to collect more info? Unfortunately I'm not an Emacs user and don't have time to dig into this. If there is anything to do from the w3m side please make sure keep me Cc'ed.

On 7.6 this should be: #v+ % pkg_info w3m | sed -n '1s/.*://p' w3m-0.5.3pl20240810p0 #v- > Location: https://lobste.rs/s/zian90/how_gain_code_execution_on_millions > > > Cannot retrieve URL: > https://lobste.rs/s/zian90/how_gain_code_execution_on_millions > > /usr/local/bin/w3m exits with the code 11 > > Something seems to be wrong with URL or this system.
