rsb and ftp.gnu.org

[D Peter Siddons]

I'm trying to build an Arm toolset using rsb on an Ubuntu system (16.04).

First, I'm confused by the releases offered by rsb. "list-bsets" offers 
4.9, 4.10 and 4.12. RTEMS suggests there is a 4.11, and no 4.12. What 
does this mean? Is rsb's 4.12 really RTEMS 4.11?

So I tried 4.10. I get the following message:

download: (full) ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/autoconf/autoconf-2.69.tar.gz -> 
sources/autoconf-2.69.tar.gz
download: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/autoconf/autoconf-2.69.tar.gz -> 
sources/autoconf-2.69.tar.gz
download: no ssl context
download: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/autoconf/autoconf-2.69.tar.gz: error: 
<urlopen error ftp error: [Errn
o 111] Connection refused>

It's not clear to me if this is a firewall problem, or a problem with 
ftp.gnu.org or what. Any suggestions?

I really wanted the most recent release because I'm interested in 
experimenting with the ZynQ port, which I think was only introduced in 4.11.

Thanks for any suggestions,

Pete.
