Re: How do I deflate content()?

Here's a full request, with debug enabled:

As expected, the library is accepting deflate, and the Home Assistant
server is delivering deflate.

I couldn't figure out how to check the status of
Slim::Networking::SimpleHTTP::hasZlib. As I mentioned, zlib1g is in the
dependencies for the package:


Code:
--------------------
    
  ...
  Package: logitechmediaserver
  Version: 8.3.0
  State: installed
  ...
  Depends: perl (>= 5.10.0), adduser, libc6, libgcc1, libstdc++6, zlib1g,
  libio-socket-ssl-perl, ca-certificates, libcrypt-openssl-rsa-perl
  
--------------------


I tried dumping the structure out with $log a couple of ways; how would
I inspect this? I did find the code in SimpleHTTP/Base.pm that only adds
the header for accepting compressed data IFF zlib is available, so
there's a secondary indication that it's there. $response->content is
certainly not deflating the data, though; is there a way I can do it
manually? I'm getting content, and it's still compressed by the time the
plugin gets it -- is there a simple function to uncompress it?
