zsync 0.6.1 now attempts to handle redirects intelligently, but at least some of the time, it fails. Similar failures are described in Debian bug 532818 and Ubuntu bug 661308.
I have isolated the root cause of these failures. Full details and a patch are available here: http://launchpad.net/bugs/661308 and a copy of the patch (lightly tested) is attached. -- - mdz
