No problem downloading the same package manually via a web browser from https://downloads.exodus.com/releases/exodus-linux-x64-23.4.10.deb

At the terminal aria2c works, but wget and curl fail

Looks like this domain is now protected by Cloudflare. I don't think we can do anything with this on our side. :disappointed: Here is what you can try to do:

• Contact Exodus company asking them to remove Cloudflare protection from downloads.exodus.com.
• Open a Gentoo bugzilla ticket asking them to implement Cloudflare protection workaround while downloading from non-standard file locations (honestly, I don't believe in success here, but at least Gentoo devs will be notified about this issue).
• Manually download the file using browser and save it to your $DISTDIR (e.g. /usr/portage/distfiles).

Thanks, I used option three as a workaround for now, downloading the package into /var/cache/distfiles

I will contact exodus and ask them to remove Cloudflare protection from downloads.exodus.com.

Contacted exodus. Really appreciate your responsiveness to issues raised on your repository btw.
