1. Without `-L`, curl doesn't follow redirects. This is different than both the default behavior of pacman, and from the wget example. So add `-L`.
2. It uses `-C -` to supposedly allow resuming partial downloads; but that doesn't work if we use `> %o` to direct the output to the file. Instead, use `-o %o` so that `-C -` actually works.
