RTL SDR Package installation failure

I have been trying to install the RTL SDR support package in Matlab. However, it keeps on failing in the package download step. Can any one help me overcome this? I suspect it is because the link to one of the third party packages is not valid.

I receive the following error:
Unable to download http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/raw-attachment/wiki/rtl-sdr/RelWithDebInfo.zip. Error downloading URL. Your network connection may be down or your proxy settings improperly configured.
Anyone knows if the repositories are down?

Is something wrong with rtl sdr third party packages? I have no internet problem for sure, and I have repeated the installation many times but ...?!? Any advice will be helpful. OS: win7, Matlab 2016.

OK, it seems that the original link has died, but you can download the missing file from:
From the Support Package installer choose download from the internet (not install from the internet) when the error appears just add the above file (RelWithDebInfo.zip) to the Matlab support package downloads folder. Then again run the package installer and now choose install from folder.

I installed the zip file in the folder you provided, but the installation process hangs up at Installing Third Party Packages (may take a few minutes) stage like the other user reported. The installation is never completed. How can this be fixed? Is it a problem with the RTL software web site?
