Package: apt-listbugs
Version: 0.1.47
Severity: normal

apt-listbugs sometimes gives the following error:

Retrieving bug reports... 0% Fail
E: HTTP GET failed
Retry downloading bug information? [Y/n] 

It is not clear whether the error comes from the package itself or
from the remote side, but in the latter case, the reason should be
output (e.g. HTTP error code).
