[Tarantool-patches] [PATCH v2 5/5] static build: resolve issues with sourceforge.net

[Alexander Tikhonov]

Hi, Sergey, thanks a lot for the reviews, I’ve tried this option to fix this issue with wget, but it didn’t help. I’ve made the research and found some information about this issue. Also I’ve tried curl instead of wget and found that it completely fixes the issue, so for now this is the only fix available.
