If Ubuntu's archives are like Debian's then when there's a new version
the 0.83.orig tarball will disapear from thier mirrors. For this reason
I've been prefering Debian's gitlab instance and git-download to make
sure the source tarballs don't disapear.

https://salsa.debian.org/fonts-team/fonts-ubuntu
tag: upstream/0.83

According to the debian/watch file, the source code is at
https://assets.ubuntu.com/v1/4cd05122-ubuntu-font-family-sources_0.83.orig.tar.gz
