This is a problem in uscan, not in the redirector. In devscripts 2.14.7, we started adding a Referer header in uscan's HTTP requests. When Sourceforge gets a request to download an archive with a Referer header present (or more likely, one that isn't from Sourceforge), it responds with the "Your download will start in 5 seconds" page, which uscan gladly downloads. A fix is pending and will be uploaded soon. Cheers, -- James GPG Key: 4096R/331BA3DB 2011-12-05 James McCoy <jamessan@debian.org>
