New submission from Nathan R. Yergler <nathan@yergler.net>:

PackageIndex._download_html (setuptools/package_index.py) attempts to detect if an HTML page is a Subversion repository using the regular expression r'<title>Revision \d+:'. This breaks for Sourceforge subversion repositories, which include the project name before the "Revision" text (see http://cctools.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/cctools/vendorlibs/utidylib/ for an arbitrary example).

looks like sf upgraded to svn 1.5? this issue actually breaks setuptools for anyone using the default xslt template for svn 1.5 (though that template is inadequate for fixing it) r'<title>\s*[a-zA-Z]+\s*\-?\s*Revision \d+:' will match both old and new: <title>almanac - Revision 1179: / <title>Revision 19507: / seems like there ought to be a better way to do this than sniffing title tags though... especially since svn offers easy ways to break this via the svnindex.xsl template. -w
