Package: libcifpp-data
Version: 5.0.7.1-3
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
   Installing libcifpp-data via "apt install".  The incorrect URL causes apt to
hang for a long period of time before returrning to a prompt.  As a result, the
file supposed to be loaced in /var/cache/libcifpp/components.cif fails to
download.  The Stable version of this package was showing timeout errors when
attempting to connect to https://ftp.wwpdb.org.  The correct URL that is
published by wwpdb.org is https://files.wwpdb.org for downloading via HTTP.
This will happen durring install via apt when you are prompted Package
configuration about setting up weekly downloads of these data files from
wwpdb.org.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
    Editing the file /etc/cron.weekly/update-libcifpp-data and changing the URL
for the components.cif download from https://ftp.wwpdb.org to
https://files.wwpdb.org leaving all subpaths the same resolves the issue.  This
also helps with the stable version of this package and fixes dpkg and apt when
running "dpkg --configure -a"

   * What was the outcome of this action?
     Resolves the package install and fixes apt/dpkg package management system.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?
    The expected outcome is that "apt install" will successfully install the
package and be able to run the download scripts successfully.
