Comment (by stippi):
OK, I understand. I have a few questions to help me pick the best
solution:
1 What website could the alert point users to in order for them to extract
the information they need and fix things themselves?
2 Is it likely that the URL currently used as identifier at least for
HaikuPorts and Haiku will ever change again? If not, wouldn't it be OK to
apply some fuzzy logic to automatically fix this situation without the
user becoming aware of it?
3 In my old install, the base-URL is incorrect for use as the identifier
URL. Yet the change fixes display of packages in the "all packages list"
for me. The featured packages are still empty. Maybe I have to investigate
this deeper, but from what you write above, shouldn't it refuse to work
still?
