We never advertised HTTP downloads, we only had an HTTPS URL
incorrectly labeled as "HTTP". So s/or HTTP // in the subject.
The text later on says that it is available over HTTP, even if we
typoed the link on this page.

Also, is that so? We should fix that.
You mean fix that fact that not everything is signed ?

That's... A whole lot of "libvirt"s in the page after the change.
I don't have brilliant ideas on how to improve upon that, though.
Perhaps use "libvirt.org" instead of "libvirt"? Food for thought.
I think it is ok - some of the other entries are "pypi" and "cpan".
It is just a short nickname for the site hosting it. If people want
the full URL they can see it in mouse-over.

Daniel
