reassign 790482 mirrors retitle 790482 ftp2.de.d.o serves bzip2 instead of plain-text / 404 thanks
Hi, I am reassigning this old (but still reproducible) bug to the mirror team as I assume they can help with getting ftp2.de.d.o to tweak their configuration or at least help forward it. I am quoting Eduard's mail in full below for the mirror team's convenience and my reproduction attempt is appended below that mail.
