Failing to download packages seems like a common issue we’re having. I’m looking at adding retry logic to Argos Translate but we can also consider adding this type of functionality to LibreTranslate.
I use the standard library to download packages in Argos Translate to reduce dependencies but LibreTranslate already includes requests
and we may have better results using it. The Argos Translate packaging code should be modular enough that you can get package paths from the index, download them manually, and then install them with Argos Translate.
