   investigating
   We’re investigating intermittent failures during `dbt deps` that prevent some dbt Cloud jobs from downloading and installing packages. Affected runs receive a response that is not a valid gzip archive. The issue has been observed across multiple customer accounts, packages, and regions. Our findings point to the package CDN delivery path, but the root cause is not yet confirmed. Engineering is investigating, and we’ll provide updates as we learn more.
