[aur-general] Search-URL in PKGBUILD

[Frederick Zhang]

Is it a common issue for many or somehow cause by your network
environment? I just tested the URL and was able to download the file
without any problem.

If it's just you, personally I'd suggest investigating your network or
just writing a cURL wrapper to set an http_proxy for such URLs;
alternatively you can have a look at projects like customizepkg [1] to
automate the process of updating PKGBUILDs.

If you believe your network is not at fault, I'd suggest you reach out
to the Perl people to check e.g. if your IP is blocked by mistake.
