Robert Metzger commented on FLINK-21561:
----------------------------------------
I had an offline discussion with [~autophagy] about fixing this issue: We
intend to start a local webserver on the builder, which serves as a cache for
binaries loaded from various sources.
Instead of downloading from archive.apache.org, we download from
localhost:1234/archive.apache.org. The cache will check if the resource is
already present in a cached folder, and if so, return the file.
[~autophagy] I assigned you to the ticket! Thanks a lot for working on it!
