Just for the record, in case anyone reads this: I filed a bug report for apt about this issue ( https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=827365 ), however it showed that a new feature in apt stops apt from accepting the kind of hhtp(s) redirects sourceforge now uses. This at least explains the initially odd observation that the sf repo still works with outdated versions of apt. So it looks like (at least for now) it is simply not possible to use debian repositories hosted on sourceforge. I added a note about this to the ticket at https://sourceforge.net/p/forge/site-support/12143/ , so they hopefully will know what to do if they care to fix this. For now obviously the best choice seems to move one's repos to a different hosting service. Regards Michael .-.. .. ...- . .-.. --- -. --. .- -. -.. .--. .-. --- ... .--. . .-.
