Updating pywb version in Hypothesis/via

[yattias]

Hi! this is more of a question than a bug report. Apologies if not in the right format.

I'm trying to update the version of pywb in repo https://github.com/hypothesis/via/ but getting the following error: cannot find module 'via.rewriter' (No module named webapp.live_rewrite_handler)

Since Hypothesis is running an older version of pywb, I'm wondering if anything notable has chaged to cause the above error which you can please help with.

This is in reference to https://github.com/hypothesis/via/issues/174

Yes, unfortunately a lot has changed in pywb and via is using an older version. It would be good to help upgrade Via to the latest pywb, though I don't have the bandwidth to take that on now, but we can assist if others are working on it.

Hi @ikreymer I left a comment on https://github.com/hypothesis/via/issues/174. I'm more than happy to take on that but would appreciate on any information you can provide. Also, is there a workaround to using Brotili? You alluded to rewriting the Accept-Encoding header. Is there an example you can provide? Thank you
