quilt can not download the files. Download them yourself and put them in
the doc directory (or wherever is appropriate). Read the quilt manual [1],
if you have not yet done it. In particular, you should set
QUILT_PATCHES=debian/patches (or put it in ~/.quiltrc).
Here is the cookbook:
mkdir -p debian/patches
quilt new <patch-name.diff>
# Do the following *_before_* the files are in place
# (file1, file2, etc are complete paths, not only filenames)
quilt add file1 file2 ...
# Download the files and put them at the appropriate places
quilt refresh
quilt pop
At this point, <patch-name.diff> should have appeared in debian/patches and
included in patches/series.
