Subject: plucker-build doesn't handle authentication gracefully.

Package: plucker
Version: 1.1.14-4
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

When plucker-build encounters a URL requiring authentication,
the user is prompted for a login and password.  When running
as a cron job, this isn't good.

I tried piping /dev/null to standard input.  That eliminated
the hang on the prompt, but the resulting exception wasn't
caught by plucker-build, so the whole process died.

The quick kludge is to add an exception handler to the
_retrieve() subroutine of Retrieve.py.
            except EOFError, text:
                return ({'URL': real_url,
                         'error code': 401,
                         'error text': text},
                        None)

Using plucker for retrieving webs that require authentication is
documented in plucker's FAQ:

3.6  How do I pluck a password-protected site?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

  We suggest using Sitescooper together with Plucker to pluck various
  hard-to-get-at sites.  Sitescooper has many features for pulling over
  pages that will be slow to appear in Plucker.

  For more information on Sitescooper, see www.sitescooper.org.

As sitescooper is available in Debian and upstream is not really in a hurry to
fix this...
