Merge #12619: doc: Give hint about gitian not able to download
08e0855b9 Give hint about gitian not able to download (kallewoof)
Pull request description:
Gitian fails to perform downloads right now on my set up. This can be circumvented by first checking out the tag being built and then doing the depends download step before running `gbuild`.
This should of course be fixed in gitian, but having this note until it's fixed is definitely useful.
