Hi,

I noticed that there is a bug in the http-{put,post} methods of the
web client:

    (use-modules (web client))
    (http-put "http://localhost:2000")

results in

    $ nc -l -p 2000
    PUT / HTTP/1.1
    Host: localhost:2000
    Connection: close


But if I add a body:

    (http-put "http://localhost:2000" #:body "Hello!")

I get a GET request

    $ nc -l -p 2000
    GET / HTTP/1.1
    Content-Length: 6
    Content-Type: text/plain;charset=utf-8
    Host: localhost:2000
    Connection: close

    Hello!

Thanks!
Anders

This was reported in September and fixed on the stable-2.0 branch, so it
will be fixed in Guile 2.0.10.

If you need a workaround for existing Guile releases, here's how:

I'm closing this bug.  Please let us know if you have other problems.

    Thanks,
