Intermittent failure installing X VNC server ("libvncserver0_0.9.9+dfsg2-6.1+deb8u2_amd64.deb" is not found)

Build Environment
1

Our builds have started intermittently failing, because it tries to install x11vnc (to assist with debugging end-to-end tests), but it can’t download from “http://security.debian.org/pool/updates/main/libv/libvncserver/libvncserver0_0.9.9+dfsg2-6.1+deb8u2_amd64.deb”.

Looks like that file is no longer available, and it’s now at “http://security.debian.org/pool/updates/main/libv/libvncserver/libvncserver0_0.9.9+dfsg2-6.1+deb8u3_amd64.deb”

Re-running the build usually fixes it, which suggests it’s an issue with specific container environments, outside of my control.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

sudo apt-get install -y x11vnc
