Regular errors downloading Node.js tarballs

[shadowspawn]

Details

Users of n are reporting problems with around 5% of Node.js installs in CI failing while downloading the tarball with curl. Three different users, at least two using AWS CodeBuild.

Not got a lot of information, but I thought it was worth asking:

• Have there been any recent changes or problems with CDN that might explain increased errors?
• Is there anything I can do to make the downloads more reliable? (Specify the http version to use?)

The reported errors are:

       fetch : https://nodejs.org/dist/v14.21.3/node-v14.21.3-linux-x64.tar.xz
curl: (92) HTTP/2 stream 1 was not closed cleanly: INTERNAL_ERROR (err 2)

fetch : https://nodejs.org/dist/v18.14.2/node-v18.14.2-linux-x64.tar.xz
23 | curl: (18) transfer closed with 9476756 bytes remaining to read
