Package: www.debian.org
Severity: important

If I run e.g.
links https://packages.debian.org/bash

I get:
   JavaScript is disabled in your browser.

   Please enable JavaScript to proceed.

   A required part of this site couldn’t load. This may be due to a browser extension, network issues, or browser settings. Please check your connection, disable any ad blockers, or try using a different browser.

Of course, links does not understand javascript.

I did this because some of the scripts for manpages-l10n[1] time out/fail 
currently and I'm checking why.

Please re-enable access without Javascript required so that (Debian)
infrastructure continues to work.

Thanks!

Greetings

          Helge

[1] Manpages-l10n downloads lots of packages from e.g. Debian to extract
    the manual pages to translate.
