I confirm the URL is OK:

Version:        0.5
Source0:        http://hkit.googlecode.com/files/hkit-v%{version}.tgz

--> Effective URL: http://hkit.googlecode.com/files/hkit-v0.5.tgz

Still valid and downloadable.

I thus suppose the server was not accessible at script run time.

Why not updating the script to log the exact failure reason and/or retry
transient connection failures after some delay? This would help everyone
finding the real problem, and limit the amount of false negatives and
overall line count growth you "complain" about :-)
