Then we should change the description of wgetpaste, as this is
the only keyword which limits result for paste to those
associated with what we understand as uploading a paste
somewhere.
The second package, still on hold for some months now because of
some bug with curl, requires curl. wgetpaste requires wget and is
functional now, which is why I suggested it (and maybe add the
lisp upload web service to the default sites?).
