I’m currently trying to do a full build of TB 14.5.2 on my local machine and am encountering connection failures related to the file `https://build-sources.tbb.torproject.org/manual_277399.zip` like the following. As I write it’s on its 10th retry:

```auto

Retrying.

```

I build all new releases of TB `release` and `alpha` and have not encountered this issue before, so some guidance would be appreciated.

If relevant my local system is Debian 12 based and I am using the command `make torbrowser-release-linux-x86_64` in my clone of the `tor-browser-build` repo. A ping of the IP address referenced above (204.8.99.112) fails, is part of your infrastructure temporarily down? TIA.

**Update** : [build-sources.tbb.torproject.org](http://build-sources.tbb.torproject.org) is back up and I’ve completed the build 🙂
