Description (last modified by humdinger)

I wanted to enable ​http://software.besly.de/repo64 in HaikuDepot and get an error nmed "Bad data". See attacht screenshot.

Turns out the server was missing the file "repo.info".

More detailed error messages would be useful.

[Not sure about the ticket category...]
