 On August 4, collector.tp.o attempted to fetch remote files from
 collector2.tp.o during its normal sync run. However, this process stalled,
 because of an unknown problem on collector2.tp.o. The effect was that
 neither of the two downloaded consensuses and we missed almost an entire
 day of consensuses. (We got them back from friendly relay operators in the
 end, but that should not become the new way of feeding the archive with
 data.)

 From the log:

 I'm not sure what to do here. The log doesn't reveal anything obviously
 going wrong. I didn't look at the code yet, so maybe there's an obvious
 way to prevent such issues in the future. Hmm.
