    angelo> It is *exactly* what I have seen

You say *exactly*, but the error message George reports is different
from the one you reported.  It can make a difference, although I
speculate that in this case the underlying cause is the same -- some
kind of (hopefully transient) network problem.  Obviously the TL code is
not changing from day to day (or indeed at any time since the release,
so far).

    gnwiii> Running the same command a second time did not give any error.  
    gnwiii> tlmr skips the download of texlive.tlpdb.xz if the file is very recent?

Downloads are not skipped.  It looks to me like what happened, according
to the transcript provided, is that the fallback download with wget
succeeded.
