Package: qa.debian.org
Severity: normal

The uscan download from sourceforge doesn't download what you expect
for boost.  The reason is that the link provided by the reflector page
[1] is incorrect: it leads to a "snapshot" url [2].  The correct
URL is [3].

Paul Wise indicated [4] that the reflector is a proxy for the RSS
feed and indeed both URLs are present:

      <link>https://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/snapshots/master/boost_1_62_0.tar.bz2/download</link>
      <link>https://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.62.0/boost_1_62_0.tar.bz2/download</link>

My suggestion is that the ones with "snapshots" in the path are simply
filtered out from list displayed by the reflector as these are not
release files.
