Package: meshlab
Version: 1.3.2+dfsg1-2+b1
Severity: normal
The help menu has an 'online documentation', as is sadly common these
days (rather than having to docs actually on the machine you are on). Selecting
this now produces:
------------
An error has been encountered in accessing this page.
1. Server: meshlab.sourceforge.net
2. URL path: /wiki/
3. Error notes: NONE
4. Error type: 403
5. Request method: GET
6. Request query string: NONE
7. Time: 2016-02-09 14:48:46 UTC (1455029326)
Reporting this problem: The problem you have encountered is with a project web
site hosted by SourceForge.net. This issue should be reported to the
SourceForge.net-hosted project (not to SourceForge.net).
If this is a severe or recurring/persistent problem, please do one of the
following, and provide the error text (numbered 1 through 7, above):
Contact the project via their designated support resources.

right-hand corner of the Project Summary page for their usernames) at

------------
Which is a sad state of afairs. If authors are going to foist online
docs on us, they could at least make sure they remain available whilst
the package is in stable distros.
This is really something to pass on to upstream, and illustrates why
actual internal documentation is still a useful thing, never mind
cases when net acess is not available or expensive.
