I think I saw it happening once or twice, and another person reported
a similar problem some weeks ago.

But for me it was non-reproducible, so... very very hard to
troubleshoot.

If you have problems with a certain download, please share its link
here so we can check it from different parts of the world: it may be a
problem related to local mirrors.

I hope this helps.

Best regards,

Hi Rigo,
Thanks for sharing.  I looked at the downloading external dependencies perl
script and seems like it uses the LWP::UserAgent perl module and I think I
need to reinstall it. Also the Archive::Zip perl module is giving me grief
as well. I'm trying on different OS X platforms to see which will work. I
may end up trying the reference platform mentioned on the build page to see
if it can help in my case.
