Description

The result from trying chicken-install not-an-egg is:

 retrieving ...
 connecting to host "chicken.kitten-technologies.co.uk", port 80 ...
 requesting "/henrietta.cgi?name=fdlskjla&mode=default" ...
 reading response ...
 HTTP/1.1 200 OK

 Error: unrecognized file-information - possibly corrupt transmission: "(error \"no such extension or version\" \"not-an-egg\" #f)"
 

Clearly the error that should be signalled is the one given in the string and not that of unrecognized file-information.
