Can you add a note explaining why 9bf3273 is not used instead? It's not clear to me why, anyway.

@joachifm To not have rebuilds caused by change of hash. If this is not important for stable, we can use that of course.

I think for stable the most important thing is to not break/change behavior willy nilly, rebuilds are not an impediment to backporting in general.

This is a backport of d16b298 ('dns-root-data: use a stable URL that I maintain anyway')

FWIW the ncurses URL (and other "invisible-island" packages) was improved/fixed in #33340, although I suppose additional mirrors for fixed-hash sources doesn't hurt :).

FTP URL's should use ftp.invisible-island.net.
