Description:
The output of pacman -Si for ttf-dejavu gives a URL that returns NXDOMAIN when it looked up.
The url returned by pacman:
http://dejavu-fonts.org/wiki/Main_Page
which does not resolve - possible site is simply dead.
Current upstream appears to actually be https://dejavu-fonts.github.io

Additional info:
* package version: ttf-dejavu 2.37-1

Steps to reproduce:
* Run "pacman -Si ttf-dejavu"
* Note the URL: field output
* Try to open this URL in a browser.

Not 100% sure if the above is the "official" upstream URL but it's downloads page links to tarballs on sourceforge which match what the PKGBUILD for ttf-dejavu has.
This task depends upon
