GLB> Do You think I shouldn't have report that problem?
I think this is site's problem, i considered a few packages which
download something from somewhere and all of them return errorcode
when downloading fail.

Of course we can complain of something like:
 - our provider provides us with bad connection;
 - the website we have link on is down.
but does it refer to the specific package? Hmm...

But I still don't know is this behavior is right. If the script
doesn't return failcode, somebody could post the bug like 'I had no
fail when I installed the package, but it doesn't work', even if he
had seen the error message.

I Cc-ed the mail to debian-devel: may be somebody gives us advice.
