bug#19527: 24.4; elpa.gnu.org seems down

[Sebastien Vauban]

While I do have network access (!), elpa seems unavailable for the last
30 mins or so -- at least, that error is generated when refreshing the
packages:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (file-error "make client process failed" "connection timed out" :name "elpa.gnu.org" :buffer #<buffer  *url-http-temp*> :host "elpa.gnu.org" :service 80 :nowait nil)
  make-network-process(:name "elpa.gnu.org" :buffer #<buffer  *url-http-temp*> :host "elpa.gnu.org" :service 80 :nowait nil)
  open-network-stream("elpa.gnu.org" #<buffer  *url-http-temp*> "elpa.gnu.org" 80 :type plain :nowait nil)
  ...
  package-refresh-contents()

Either it's a problem somewhere on your end, or the problem has
disappeared, since I just did a M-x list-packages successfully and
visiting http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/ worked fine as well.

I confirm it now works for me as well -- without any change on my side,
though.

No need to search for an explanation...
