Trying to build Kaldi from source on a Debian devcontainer, however I keep getting this error...

I suspect that the resource that is trying to be downloaded is not available anymore as when I tried just downloading manually (using wget), I got a 403 Forbidden Error. (Downloading's via a browser works fine though)

Update: I also got a cloudflare "firewall" a bit ago so cloudflare may be the issue
