doesn't work for all pairs

[jonorthwash]

Some pairs fail (see below). This might be a bug of the pairs and not apertium-get though?

ita-srd is nearly empty, and should probably be deleted given the existence of srd-ita, so yes, this is a language bug not a -get bug.

ita-srd is now archived and I've set its URL to srd-ita. The nightly builder's discovery script ignores archived repos and repos that lack configure.ac - apertium-get should probably do the same.

Yes, this sounds like a good solution.

Also, the current error message is useful to experienced developers, but not to new developers. A better error message might be "This Apertium module has missing files. Please report to the maintainer." or such. But yes, a more important solution is for no pairs to have missing files / to not have pairs that are missing files.

This is still an issue. Even if you do srd-ita, it crashes—for some reason it tries to get ita-srd anyway??
