Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
$ gbp clone https://salsa.debian.org/debian/jed-extra.git
$ cd jed-extra
$ uscan
uscan warn: In watchfile debian/watch, reading webpage
https://qa.debian.org/watch/sf.php/jedmodes/ failed: 400 SourceForge HTTP
Error: Bad Request
The debian/watch file contains the following:
Version: 5
Source: http://sf.net/jedmodes/
Matching-Pattern: jedmodes-@ANY_VERSION@@ARCHIVE_EXT@
Compression: xz
Dversionmangle: s/[~+]ds[0-9]*//
Repacksuffix: +ds
Accessing the redirected URL results in this error message:
$ curl https://qa.debian.org/watch/sf.php/jedmodes/
http response: HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
libxml error: Warning 1549: failed to load external entity
"https://sourceforge.net/projects/jedmodes/rss?limit=10000000000000000000"
It seems that the problem is related to the "limit" parameter, since visiting
this URL:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/jedmodes/rss?limit=100
yields the expected result, while visiting this one:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/jedmodes/rss?limit=1000
yields an error page with the message “Sorry, something's not right with this
request.”
Best,
Rafael Laboissière
