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:

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 is back up and I’ve completed the build
