----
[rational]
pastebin.com is one of the most used pastebins and is the default for a few Ubuntu releases.
Since pastebin.com deprecated the old public API, pastebin simply fails to paste anything. This change is required to change the configuration to work with the new API.
[test case]
1) Install pastebinit
2) pastebinit -b http://
Step 2) without the SRU will return
"THIS API HAS BEEN DISABLED. Please use Pastebin's new API. http://
After the SRU, an URL will be returned as expected.
[regression potential]
The change is self contained and only affects pastebin.com, as it currently simply doesn't work at all, it can't get much worse.
