Can't download files using HTTPS

  • 772

I recently wanted to install sublime text, and found a way to download the installer (using a PPA), the installer runs and downloads the actual package through HTTPS, it stays running for about 15 minutes and then a "Time out" appears, I've tried to test downloading the package manually using wget, and wget does the same thing, first it tries to connect to server, then the connection succeeds, after that nothing happens until the "Time out" message appears again, obviously I'm not able to download files over HTTPS but I CAN access websites using HTTPS. Any suggestions?

Here's the output in terminal when installing the package:

  1. Install Sublime (v3) from Webupd8 ppa:

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/sublime-text-3
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sublime-text-installer

    OR

    Install Sublime (v2) from Webupd8 ppa:

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/sublime-text-2
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sublime-text

    Just tried out these ppas. Everything works fine.
