commit 60409f68f027b27ca2d9f6b90e2a22daefcd506c Author: Pierre-Yves Chibon pingou@pingoured.fr Date: Fri Jun 27 09:51:38 2014 +0200

Handle the situation where the pkgdb2 api did not return a JSON object

This will be likely caused by a 500 error returning the default 500 page/html which will of course not load correctly as JSON.

With --debug we will be able to see what went wrong.
