Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: [tdf-announce] LibreOffice 4.2.1 is already available to improve the experience of early adopters

I've tried Chrome, Seamonkey and Firefox.  In Chrome, after about two
minutes of waiting for the download to start, I get a web page saying
that the site is unavailable.

In Seamonkey and Firefox, it says "Waiting for
download.documentfoundation.org..." and nothing ever comes through.

I always do the help download first - it's smaller and gives me a
faster success - when it works.  Again, this is for the English Deb
x86_64 version.

I tried this:

$  wget 
http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/stable/4.2.1/deb/x86_64/LibreOffice_4.2.1_Linux_x86-64_deb_helppack_en-US.tar.gz
.
Resolving download.documentfoundation.org
(download.documentfoundation.org)... 5.9.148.85, 2a01:4f8:190:3144::2
Connecting to download.documentfoundation.org
(download.documentfoundation.org)|5.9.148.85|:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response...

And that's as far as it gets.

I can ping the site, but no download luck.

This has always worked before from Chrome directly through the link.

(I accidentally clicked early and also could not get the rpm version -
same problem.)

I also tried to download the current 4.2.0 version - same problem.

Also tried this:

$ scp 
download.documentfoundation.org:/libreoffice/stable/4.2.1/deb/x86_64/LibreOffice_4.2.1_Linux_x86-64_deb_helppack_en-US.tar.gz
.

At least I get something back here, but no download....

Last ditch:  I tried clicking on the main download link, and I get the
donation page just fine, but still no download.

Any suggestion not tried above would be most welcome....
