Thanks for reporting this, it helps to know this is happening as we'll probably
start seeing odd error reports for the brownouts.

I've updated the conversion script I mentioned earlier in this thread to handle
remapping the github.com urls too and also fixed the few corner cases I found
after the first conversion. I've sent those patches to OE-Core.

For the older releases, rather than trying to rewrite all the urls, I think we
may want to patch bitbake to correctly handle the github urls specifically.

Cheers,

Richard
