This may be an issue for Bazaar use of Launchpad too.

I poked around a bit.

The downloads are ultimately served from launchpadlibrarian.net, which does happily serve http urls, eg. http://launchpadlibrarian.net/11342645/bzr-1.1.tar.gz.asc

However, the release download page <https://edge.launchpad.net/bzr/1.1/1.1> relies on https in 3 ways:

1- this page is served on https only. (Not a problem if the urls are copied to an external project web site available on http.)

2- this page points to eg <https://edge.launchpad.net/bzr/1.1/1.1/+download/bzr-1.1.tar.gz.asc> which is only available on https.

3- that location redirects to an https url on lpl.net.
