I see these too (not that exact one though) and always in the form /dev/doc/devel//////lib/<something>. Grepping through today's access log (/usr/local/log/httpd.access on creosote) suggests that these come from Ultraseek. This suggests that the spider on search.python.org perhaps generates these. It appears to generate such URLs with any number of slashes between 1 and 6. But I can't find any clues like relative URLs using an extra / anywhere in those files. It might be a bug in Ultraseek's url joining algorithm. A while ago some people were interested in upgrading our Ultraseek setup, but that initiative seems to have fallen by the wayside. :-( --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)

Last time I talked to Thomas about this, I think he mentioned that the machine he had earmarked for the upgrade got appropriated by others. IIRC, he was expected more machines to become available soon though. -Barry

Not exactly. I'm still waiting for a) the new linux-based creosote b) the ultraseek license key Anthony

No, it's not a new creosote. It's a new machine, it doesn't replace creosote. It's taking a bit longer than I expected, partly because of my workload, partly because that of others and partly because of unforseen events, but it's still on its way.
b) the ultraseek license key
Last Barry and I looked (during PyCon), we couldn't find the Linux
version... Are we certain it still exists ? :)

Yes, I even downloaded the Linux tarball (to my Windows laptop :-). It's up right now for me. --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
