So we apparently convert \\127.0.0.1\share\foo\bar UNC pathnames (or using "localhost" instead of "127.0.0.1", i.e., anything where the UNC host-name denotes the local host) into <file://127.0.0.1/share/foo/bar> URLs, then canonicalize the latter to <file:///share/foo/bar>. I don't see an easy way to fix the dilemma presented here. (One approach could be to convert such localhost UNC pathnames into <file://///127.0.0.1/share/foo/bar> URLs, see <<a href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8089#appendix-E.3.2">https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8089#appendix-E.3.2</a>>, and make LO understand such UNC URLs in addition to the <file://host/...> ones it already supports.)</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
