Problem with mirror-redirection when fetching tarball

[Marko Käning]

Hi,

it seems like I ran into a problem with a download location which redirects to
something else. The portfile specifies a file on server download.kde.org [1],
but then it port claims that it can’t find the file and proceeds with the next
possible MP mirrors, which all fail of course.

If I download [2] from a browser I do see that a redirection occurs [3]. This I
can verify using wget, which redirects to http://vesta.informatik.rwth-aachen.de.

So, the question is, why gets port confused here?

Greets,
Marko
