It’s hard to tell what’s going on based on the little information that you
provided. For example, we don’t know what mirrors you tried. I _can_ say that
this is a recent update, so if you were using our mirrors rather than the
original source the tarball might not yet have been copied at the time of your
attempt. Here’s what I’m seeing right now:
curl --connect-timeout 30 -f -L -A 'fink/0.38.3' -O
http://distfiles.master.finkmirrors.net/distfiles/libffi-3.2.1.tar.gz

### execution of curl failed, exit code 22
Downloading the file "libffi-3.2.1.tar.gz" failed.
(1) Give up
(2) Retry the same mirror
(3) Retry another mirror from your continent
(4) Retry another mirror
(5) Retry using original source URL

How do you want to proceed? [3] 5
curl --connect-timeout 30 -f -L -A 'fink/0.38.3' -O

Try again, and select the original source URL option.
