file_get_contents error after activation

Forgot to mention: Using a fresh Drupal 6.16 install

Do you have php5-curl installed? It is required to perform the get operations.

The failed to open stream error sounds like your system is not getting out to launchpad.net or is not following the redirect.

As per your question on IRC, (you should wait around so we can actually answer your question):
lp:ubuntu-drupal-theme is the latest development
lp:ubuntu-drupal-theme/6.x-old is the latest version that is currently stable

If you want production level versions, please see drupal.org. You can also see the projects I manage on drupal.org at the bottom of this page. http://drupal.org/user/302171 Those are production level version. Launchpad is for development of the modules and should not be used in a production level environment.

Ah, would it be okay of I push the following udcountdown_cron.inc patch to remove the curl dependency?

26,32c26
< $cur = curl_init();
< curl_setopt($cur, CURLOPT_URL, $pointer . '/+download/rv');
< curl_setopt($cur, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
< curl_setopt($cur, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, TRUE);
< $curval = curl_exec($cur);
< curl_close($cur);
< $curval = trim($curval);
---
> $curval = file_get_contents("$pointer/+download/rv");

file_get_contents seems to do the same job as curl in this case.

Now I don't receive any error-messages anywhere except for the following in admin/settings/udcountdown :

warning: fopen(sites/default/files/countdown/data/desc.csv) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /nfs/www/no/www.ubuntu.no/htdocs/modules/ubuntu-drupal-countdown/udcountdown_settings.inc on line 65.

Ps. I use IRC for quick questions, if I don't get an answer there I use bugtrackers like this one instead, I don't expect you to answer me immediately on IRC, I'm just trying my luck :)
