Apparently the info file hasn't been updated since fink stopped using 
prdownloads.  I've cc'ed the maintainer.

In the interim, you can try using a browser on the old URL--it should actually 
be an HTML file that links to a list of usable download sites.  If this 
works, download the tarball and move it to /sw/src.  Then you should be able 
to do the update-all with no problems (unless you have another unhappy 
package).
