I ran into this on another overlay a few weeks ago.  I went to the
overlay and copied the URL for the overlay directly and put it in the
correct repos.conf file.  It worked after that.  It's a different
overlay but that may work for you as well.  I think the overlay I had
trouble with was voyager or something like that. 

I just took a wild guess to try that.  I was shocked it actually
worked.  :/ 

Hope that helps.
