Can you post the last portion of your bzr log?

It seems like bzr is saying something like: "Give me this file, and I
will accept it in these formats." And the server says "I don't have it
in that format".
For example if bzr requests "text/plain", and the server only has
"application/octet-stream".

I'm guessing it is just a misconfiguration of therning.org's web server.

I also think we should start logging a little bit more at exception time.

For example:
try:
  f = get_url(url)
except Stuff, e:
  mutter('caught an exception for %r', url)
  if e.code == 404:
    raise FileNotFound....
  raise e

Because I think most errors don't contain enough information about what
you were trying to do.

I'll look into it a bit because I can reproduce the error here. But that
really makes me think it is the fault of the server, not bzr.
