Angstrom fails to fetch u-boot

Hi, I am trying to compile a whole new Angstrom and it is failing in the
fetch of u-boot, see below

any ideas on how to fix this?
I am new to bitbake and Angstrom and it is quite confusing for me why it is
trying to wget
http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/unstable/sources/git_repo.or.cz.u-b...
instead of cloning the git repository.

I added the -k option to bitbake, so it would keep going and
downloading/compiling everything else. At the end of the tasks, bitbake
didnt build my rootfs... i guess it is because building u-boot failed and
the rootfs depends on uboot?

anyway, ill dig into learning how to make/fix recipes to see if i can get
everything working again
