[Bug 207456] [NEW] localhost http server not detected

[Daniel Newman]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

system:
Description:	Ubuntu hardy (development branch)
Release:	8.04

firefox:
  Installed: 3.0~b4+nobinonly-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 3.0~b4+nobinonly-0ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 3.0~b4+nobinonly-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://au.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

The computer in use is running an apache http server.  It is not always
connected to a network. The firefox home page is set to the localhost
http server.  When not connected to a network through either ethernet or
wifi, starting firefox 3.0 results in a failure to connect to the local
server.  Manually changing to online mode rectifies the problem.   This
bug is specific to firefox 3, and did not occur in previous versions.

** Affects: firefox-3.0 (Ubuntu)
