AUR PKGBUILD not working

Hello Arch Linux Forum,

I've moved over to Arch Linux 64-bit and have been adding applications on.
I'm using Ethernet all the time as I can never get my Wi-Fi connection to work (I'm trying to use wpa_supplicant and dhcpcd on a WPA2-secured network), and it works fine.

Recently I want to get some packages from the Arch User Repository (namely Discord and Visual Studio Code) but when I run

makepkg -si PKGBUILD

and

extra-x86_64-build PKGBUILD

they install the dependencies fine. The only problem is that the tar.gz file doesn't download and times out.

I can't find anything on the wiki that can fix this, so any help would be really appreciated!

Thanks,
Samaritan

Re: AUR PKGBUILD not working

Yeah, the output is:

[malachy@malachy-arch ~]$ cd discord
[malachy@malachy-arch discord]$ makepkg -si PKGBUILD

I'd like to repeat what I said earlier: I have a fully working internet connection. It can browse and responds to external pings.

Re: AUR PKGBUILD not working

Works fine for me, for discord (AUR).  Does it work now?  Maybe their site was having trouble.  If not, try this, which is surely to fail, indicating the problem isn't with makepkg:

wget "https://dl.discordapp.net/apps/linux/0.0.9/discord-0.0.9.tar.gz"

Re: AUR PKGBUILD not working

Sidenote: You don't have to include "PKGBUILD" in the makepkg call.

Re: AUR PKGBUILD not working

You're resolving the right IPs but all ports are filtered, what is not true for this IP here.
=> Some firewall (iptables/netfilter - maybe in your router or a campus-wide firewall)?

Can you ping the IP?
