It's hard to tell without knowing your IP address.

Are you using some kind of VPN? It seems that some VPNs use the same servers as github CI which is blocked from accessing our package repositories.

Hello,

I am encountering the same issue when building a custom container image on CircleCI. Could you please explain why access to your package repositories is blocked from CI platforms?

Thank you.

Thank you.

People like to set up their CI to reinstall the entirety of our packages for a given platform for every commit they make to their projects. This puts a serious strain on our infrastructure and impacts on other users.

Ideally you should be using the docker images we provide and not building your own custom containers.
