I'm not certain what network issue is causing this yet, however, you might be able to workaround this by tweaking some environment variables if you are using the cli: PKG_CLIENT_TIMEOUT - integer value in seconds to wait before timing out PKG_TIMEOUT_MAX - integer value representing the number of times to retry before failing Cheers, -- Shawn Walker
