Like Mike Miller, I'm having problems with pkg and seeing similar symptoms:
pkg list -forge
fails with
error: pkg: could not read URL, please verify internet connection
error: called from
    list_forge_packages at line 29 column 5
    pkg at line 359 column 11

/(This is Octave 4.2.0 win 64. Installed today.)/

I tried the suggested command:
   [txt, status] = urlread ("http://packages.octave.org/gsl/index.html";)
And got the same result as Mike:
 txt =
 status = 0

And it works correctly in Chrome, redirecting to:
https://octave.sourceforge.io/gsl/index.html

The curl -v /test/ fails on the *redirection*:

...\bin>curl -v http://packages.octave.org/gsl/index.html

Trying curl on the redirection /endpoint/:
...\bin>curl -v https://octave.sourceforge.io/gsl/index.html
Fails with the same certificate verification error as Mike showed:

...\bin>curl -v https://octave.sourceforge.io/gsl/index.html

* Closing connection 0
curl: (60) server certificate verification failed. CAfile: none CRLfile:
none
More details here: https://curl.haxx.se/docs/sslcerts.html

curl performs SSL certificate verification by default, using a
"bundle"
/... etc./

The other /things to try/ all gave the same results as Mike.

I thought the addition of the redirection failure information might be
useful/noteworthy.
