[Nix-dev] Libreoffice fails to build

[Raahul Kumar]

Thanks Kirill, that solved the temp problem. What would be nicer is if
Nixos used a backup downloader, like wget in case curl fails for some
reason. I don't know where to start figuring out why curl fails to connect.
Also why only libreoffice and it works fine with all the others.
