Package: dput
Version: 0.9.6.2
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

on mentors.debian.net we offer both, HTTP and FTP support to upload packages.
Similar to ftp.upload.d.o we do not allow to overwrite packages in the incoming
queue though. That's all fine when people use FTP, as dput will just continue
and upload missing files. However it does not follow that behavior for HTTP
uploads. Thus, I'd like to suggest to treat HTTP 403 errors as non-fatal and
just try to go on, perhaps by displaying the same warning you do for failed FTP
uploads.

We send out HTTP 403 errors if a file being uploaded already exists in the
incoming queue.
