Greetings. This bug was marked a duplicate of bug #305995, but then that bug was marked invalid for other reasons. https://bugs.launchpad.net/loggerhead/+bug/305995/comments/11 says, "I don't really care about the links thing, so you can file that bug if you do..."

How about using this issue to carry the torch for the absolute URLs issue? It is also referenced in bug #333755, and question #45503.

For now I am working around it with mod_proxy_html, but that is less than ideal. I'm afraid I'm not familiar with Paste at all, but in general to be a good proxy citizen a web app should use relative links exclusively in the HTML, CSS, JavaScript, etc. The HTTP Location header (i.e. redirect) is a notable exception. That should be absolute per rfc2616, but mod_proxy handles those just fine with ProxyPassReverse.
