If I understand your request, you want a request to not be automatically
redirected, but rather return to *you* the 301 or 302, correct?
There's two ways, both documented. One is alluded to in the code
you quoted:
Lennart> return $response unless $self->redirect_ok($referral);
So, subclass LWP::UserAgent to make a class where $self->redirect_ok
returns false instead of true. This is documented.
The other is to use $user_agent->simple_request instead of
$user_agent->request. This is also documented.
So, read the documentation. It's not handholding, but it does have
all the basics already in there.
