You can try the awesome sbosrcarch when a download fails.

*THANKS* B Watson & Tadgy!
I think sbotools now automatically falls back to sbosrcarch, and Willy
is working on the same idea for sbopkg but it's not released yet:
https://github.com/sbopkg/sbopkg/issues/12
see his 'sbosrcarch' branch -- and note he has added a 'help wanted' tag ;-)
Maybe people don't remember that this same Sourceforge problem
happened all the time years ago. Maybe it's a sign that the old
Sourceforge really is back -- not evil, just incompetent.
-D.
