It looks like there's been two failures causing files not to be
archived on *both* snapshot.d.o and us.cdimage.d.o. I've just copied
across the missing files onto us.cdimage.d.o now and tested again
successfully with jigdo. I'll file a bug on snapshot.d.o too, to get
things fixed up there.
Thanks for the report!
