Ack, I left out how I proved my my conclusion above.

I copied the failed to fetch addresses into into the address bar of Firefox ie: 
 
  
Http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libc/libcgi-pm-perl_4.26-1_all.deb
  
  
and received:  
  
"404 not found The requested URL 
/ubuntu/pool/main/libc/libcgi-pm-perl_4.26-1_all.deb was not found on this 
server.  

Apache/2.4.18 (Ubuntu) Server at us.archive.ubuntu.com Port 80"

I then shortened the addresses to   
  
Http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libc/  

and found myself on the archive page for libc where I found the omitted
directory /libcgi-pm-perl/

You can substantiate what I found by following what I did above.  
'temporary failure resolving "us.archive.ubuntu.com' message is puzzling. It 
could indicate a network problem, but by doing what I did above I eliminated 
that as the cause. 

I will add this comment to bug #1615771 as well.  
I look forward to your questions, And thank you for your time and effort. You 
are saving this old disabled vet from the machinations of the M-word.
