Subject: Re: Bug#79002: http method should support HTTP redirects

Looking at the http method, it seems like it would be pretty easy to
enqueue new (HTTP) URIs for redirects in http.cc. That "solution" is
definitely a hack (it messes up concurrent downloads?), and what we
really need, I think, is a new message we can pass back to apt:

  30x URI Redirection

Then, apt can re-issue a 600 to the appropriate method. Is this being
worked on? I need it for a project I'm doing...
