Normally, jhalfs uses the link from the book, so it cannot be a different
server. But, as Bruce said, sourceforge redirects to various servers.

That should not happen. If the file is present in the archive, or in $SRC_DIR,
it should not be downloaded again. But maybe, you have a different version in
the archive and in $SRC_DIR. In this case, jhalfs uses the one in $SRC_DIR. If
you want to use the one in the archive, you may remove the faulty one from
$SRC_DIR before running jhalfs again.

Note that with the default "envars.conf" the archive and $SRC_DIR are the same
directory, but you may have a different setting.

Hope this helps,
Pierre
