midori from slackbuilds ssl handshake failure when visiting https sites

Everytime I try to visit a secure site I get ssl handshake failure with Midori from slackbuilds and xxxterm compiled from source.

According to the FAQ on Midori's website this problem occurs regularly. The suggested way to solve this is to start Midori with this command:
Quote:
export WEBKIT_IGNORE_SSL_ERRORS="1" midori
I think it's a webkit related problem.

thanks for the tip. unfortunately it didn't help. Midori won't even start from the terminal with that command.

I had the same problem with jumanji web browser. You need to install "glib-networking".

I had to recompile libsoup with glib-networking to get it working.

Thank you. I used src2pkg to install glib-networking and recompiled libsoup and it now works fine.
BTW I updated libsoup to 2.34.1 and midori to 3.6 which works great too.
