          Issue ID: 16349
           Summary: better curl retry for install.sh script
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: installer
          Assignee: nobody puremagic.com
          Reporter: code dawg.eu

Sometimes the install script fails b/c of some temporary network failure.
All downloads should use some limited retry mechanism to recover from those.
This problem is particularly annoying since it leads to spurious Travis-CI
failures.
