Bug#581622: [qa.debian.org] Please provide a code.google.com redirector



* Peter Fritzsche <peter.fritzsche@gmx.de>, 2010-05-14, 13:07:
code.google.com seems to become one of the most used code hosting websites
after sourceforge and provides a download interface which is at least as ugly
as the one from sourceforge. Many packages are now broken after they changed
their download interface again and nobody can easily use the href in
http://code.google.com/p/<project>/downloads/list?can=1 anymore with uscan as
the real data is hidden in a javascript button onclick or a subpage.

It's still feasible to write a watch file for the new download page, see e.g. http://svn.debian.org/viewsvn/python-apps/packages/sinntp/trunk/debian/watch?revision=5212

Please provide a way to use uscan like we do it already with sourceforge.

That said, I concur that a redirector would be useful.
