Maybe it's a transient issue with speedtest.net itself? I still can't reproduce this. I can only assume it was a glitch on the speedtest website, because things are back to normal now. Maybe the bug here is "there should be better feedback to the user when the site crashes", but that certainly doesn't warrant the current severity. a. -- Dr. King’s major assumption was that if you are nonviolent, if you suffer, your opponent will see your suffering and will be moved to change his heart. He only made one fallacious assumption: In order for nonviolence to work, your opponent must have a conscience. The United States has none.- Stokely Carmichael

Package: speedtest-cli Version: 2.1.3-2 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Dear Maintainer, Attempts to run the package from several Debian 11.4 systems produces: farfalle$ speedtest --csv Cannot retrieve speedtest configuration ERROR: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden farfalle$ (Attempts to run from Debian 10.12 in another country show only cosmetic differences from this behaviour.) This is a relatively recent change in behaviour and, as such, I think it more likely to be caused by the server speedtest is talking to. I tried also '--simple' and '--list' but the results are the same. -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.4 APT prefers stable-security APT policy: (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-17-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages speedtest-cli depends on: ii ca-certificates20210119 ii python33.9.2-3 ii python3-pkg-resources 52.0.0-4 speedtest-cli recommends no packages. speedtest-cli suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
