commit 4759a702081297bde66982efed8b2b7fd39ca27c Author: Julian Andres Klode <j...@debian.org> Date: Wed Jan 18 20:39:27 2017 +0100 basehttp: Only read Content-Range on 416 and 206 responses This fixes issues with sourceforge where the redirector includes such a Content-Range in a 302 redirect. Since we do not really know what file is meant in a redirect, let's just ignore it for all responses other than 416 and 206. Maybe we should also get rid of the other errors, and just ignore the field in those cases as well?

Sourceforge sometimes replies with that in a 302 redirect. We should probably just accept and silently ignore that content-range field for other values.
