Bug Description

Although fixing bug 183737 allowed checkwatches to handle private SourceForge bugs properly, we don't yet handle non-existent bugs on SourceForge properly (see OOPS-982CCW3576). This is partly due to the fact that non-existent bugs cause a completely different form of error message to be returned and partly due to the fact that SourceForge returns a 200 OK for non-existent bugs (we already handle the case of a 404).

The SourceForge ExternalBugTracker should be updated to deal with these errors.

Hi Graham, are you sure OOPS-857CCW1 is the right one? It seems to be an oops related to Mantis.

This no longer OOPSes. Testing this locally, I get:

2012-11-20 03:02:29 INFO Updating 1 watches for 1 bugs on http://sourceforge.net
2012-11-20 03:02:30 INFO Error updating http://sourceforge.net/: Remote bug 353233326 does not define a status.

Which is fine.
