Unable to get Eclipse/PyDev via Help > Install New Software

I add this as a repository:

http://pydev.org/updates/

This ends up getting redirected to: 

to https://dl.bintray.com/fabioz/pydev/4.5.5/content.xml

which is a bad link in that there is not a content.xml file. There is a content.jar file, though.

When I add:

http://pydev.org/updates/

to the Work with field, I get this error:

HTTP Server 'Service Unavailable': http://pydev.org/updates/content.xml
HTTP Server 'Service Unavailable': http://pydev.org/updates/content.xml
HttpComponents connection error response code 503.

When I enter:

http://pydev.org/updates/

into Chrome, it displays:

Nothing to see here (this is just a dummy link to be redirected to https://dl.bintray.com/fabioz/pydev/4.5.5)

What's the issue here?

I've download the zip file and installed it, so I'm not stuck, but this way makes updates a little more work.

Open the following URL in Browser and paste it over there,

http://pydev.org/updates/

and you will find the following URL

https://dl.bintray.com/fabioz/pydev/7.4.0

then Copy it and paste it in the following URL field in Eclipse.

Just open it via Eclipse 'Help > Install New Software'

enter image description here Then, Next> Accept> Finish..

Just open 'Help > Install New Software'.

Enter

http://pydev.org/updates/

in the 'Work with' field and press Enter.

After a few moments the table should then be populated with the available installs: Install New Software Dialog
