fetch hang

[Loren Rosen]

I'm trying to install wordpress. After installing all the dependencies, it hangs right here:
--->  Fetching wordpress
--->  Attempting to fetch wordpress-2.5.1.tar.gz from ftp://ftp.stu.edu.tw/pub/wordpress/

I've waited for it to timeout, killed it and tried again, but it always ends up in the same place. There doesn't seem to be anything obvious in the docs about imposing a timeout, or forcing it to use a specific mirror.
