Does getting the same repository over http work all right? Or are you unable to test this? David

ertai helped me finding the culprit, and after hunting down and deleting one patch from my ~/.darcs/cache/patches it worked fine. I somehow cannot reproduce this problem now anymore.

That's very weird. Was it a particularly large patch that you deleted, or corrupt in some way? Or do you have no idea what the trouble was? I'm thinking we may as well close this, if we don't have any more information with which to figure out what went wrong, but I'll wait until I hear back from you. (And thanks for the bug report, by the way...) David

The bug reporter never replied any more, so closing.
