These last three sections are repeated until the retries are exhausted (4

Did this issue ever get resolved? I'm trying to do automated unattended install of cygwin and I'm pretty sure I'm running into this exact same scenario.
Here's my automated install .bat file:
setup-x86_64.exe ^
--no-shortcuts ^
--quiet-mode ^
--disable-buggy-antivirus ^
--root C:\a\tools\cygwin ^
--local-package-dir C:\a\tools\cygwin\pkgs ^
--packages bsdtar, curl, git, gcc-g++, make, openssh, ruby, ruby-json, ruby-minitest, ruby-rake, ruby-rdoc
The installer starts and appears to be working fine at first, downloading all sorts of packages, but then it quits with an error after a while.
Here's the last few lines of /var/log/setup.log:

I'm baffled as to why it's unable to reach mirros.kernel.org site because it reaches it just fine for all the files before the one it's trying to download last.
Any ideas as to what might be going on or how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
