wgetpaste defaults to the pound-python.org paste service, which seems to no longer exist. --verbose tells me: "This pastebin is canceled. The maintenance burden and constant spam is very wearying. Use a different pastebin." From the services supported by wgetpaste only bpaste and dpaste seem to still work. We should probably patch it to disable all nonexisting services.
Created attachment 566058 [details, diff] patch to remove deprecated services and default to bpaste I have not removed the code and API endpoints, just removed the broken services from the list and changed the default.
I went ahead and pushed this, since it's a pretty major user-facing issue with simple workaround.
bpaste dpes npt really work in russia and some other countries, re-did patch using dpaste, as for the rest, I think I will find some spare time to add some working services there as well (osuosl one should be nice to have).
