macOS cannot download BasicTeX.pkg at current URL

Hi @jeroen and @jimhester,

Since 2018-12-13, I get the following error on multiple Travis MacOS builds for the R programming language (from this Travis log):

$ curl -fLo "/tmp/BasicTeX.pkg" --retry 3 http://mirror.ctan.org/systems/mac/mactex/BasicTeX.pkg

curl: (55) getpeername() failed with errno 22: Invalid argument

The command "curl -fLo "/tmp/BasicTeX.pkg" --retry 3 http://mirror.ctan.org/systems/mac/mactex/BasicTeX.pkg" failed and exited with 55 during .

The day before everything worked fine. The Linux build of the same package still works.

Good luck fixing it, Richel Bilderbeek
