Dear team,

not working.
Please help to provide the correct url to download the guile tar file.

Thanks,

Perhaps better if you describe what you are trying (how are
you downloading, perhaps whether you are in a company or
country which might enforce network restrictions) and what
the error message is.

What is your operating system? Are you comfortable with the
command line? (this might help debug the problm ).

Much more helpful than a screen dump which some of us won't
look at (I, for example have a text-only mail program and
currently so little bandwidth that I won't look at it for
sure :-)

personal network and let you know.

Thank you for the details!

You may try the "-S" options to wget: this will print the HTTP
headers, which might help in identifying the problem.

If I do that, this is what I see:

[then it proceeds to download the file]

I could imagine that your institution has a HTTP proxy between you and the
internet, and that this just refuses to forward HTTPS.

Alas, trying the "http://" URL, the server insists (HSTS policy) in upgrading
that to the "https://" one, so if my guess is right above, we'd need a "Plan B".

This would be one of the cases where blindly applying something perceived to
be secure in spite of the users leads to bad results. Sigh.
