even though it's there and should return 200

imo it's something like 502, not sure why they chose 404 and it definitely doesn't make sense to retry 404 🤷‍♂️

[TomasTomecek]

404 was just my guess based on the "not found"

also gitlab returns 5xx - we have a bunch of such errors in logs right now

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[mfocko]

i know it's 404, have seen some of the events in Sentry and thought it's the problem with retry mechanism and then noticed it's 404

I meant that Pagure API returns it even when it's supposed to return something like 502, since I couldn't see any pattern with the repositories and it happens only here and there.
