Nodejs.org: Troubles with downloading nodejs archives

Hello good people :wave:

It seems like there are currently some problems with downloading the packages archives from the nodejs.org dist folder.

Specific archive in question is this one: https://nodejs.org/dist/v11.12.0/node-v11.12.0-linux-x64.tar.xz

The reason I raised the issue is that the same problem is happening in our Travis builds and so builds are failing. This also probably means that it's not an issue on my specific local network.

Not sure if something else would be helpful to note, let me know if I can help test something.

Thanks!

I'm seeing this too, albeit intermittently, and for a different archive
https://nodejs.org/dist/v4.8.3/node-v4.8.3-linux-x64.tar.xz

Having the issue with node-v12.10.0-linux-x64.tar.gz.
My Gitlab CI builds are failing with following error (java maven-frontend-plugin):

[INFO] Unpacking /root/.m2/repository/com/github/eirslett/node/12.10.0/node-12.10.0-linux-x64.tar.gz into /builds/stefan/insurancedb/src/frontend/node/tmp
[ERROR] The archive file /root/.m2/repository/com/github/eirslett/node/12.10.0/node-12.10.0-linux-x64.tar.gz is corrupted and will be deleted. Please try the build again.

When I try on my local machine with wget, the download is very slow...
