Since this looks to be some kind of DNS resolving issue for various
people, you can try to work around it by changing your DNS server
settings to use something like 8.8.8.8 and/or 1.1.1.1, which resolve
the names correctly.  Or, for someone just trying to get an install
done, a simple tweak of your /etc/hosts file to define the domains as
having IP 8.43.85.97 will work as a short-term fix.
