Also, the ouput in terminal shows that it is sometimes able to establish a
connection and partially download gzip-1.6.tar.gz .  However, sometimes it
doesn't establish a connection and gives the error message:

curl --connect-timeout 30 -f -L -A 'fink/0.36.1' -O
http://easynews.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/fink/gzip-1.6.tar.gz
curl: (6) Could not resolve host: easynews.dl.sourceforge.net; nodename nor
servname provided, or not known
### execution of curl failed, exit code 6
Downloading the file "gzip-1.6.tar.gz" failed.
