Package: jenkins.debian.org we have a huge number of jobs calling apt and downloading stuff from the net. From time to time those tend to fail due to some network glitch, despite being a proxy and using deb.d.o that already limit those.
Therefore I propose injecting the apt option Acquire:Retries to a value of 3 to as many APTs as possible (reproducible pbuilder and schroot chroots, chroot-run chroots, more?) From apt.conf(5): THE ACQUIRE GROUP The Acquire group of options controls the download of packages as well as the various "acquire methods" responsible for the download itself (see also sources.list(5)). Retries Number of retries to perform. If this is non-zero APT will retry failed files the given number of times. -- regards, Mattia Rizzolo GPG Key: 66AE 2B4A FCCF 3F52 DA18 4D18 4B04 3FCD B944 4540 .''`. more about me: https://mapreri.org : :' : Launchpad user: https://launchpad.net/~mapreri `. `'` Debian QA page: https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=mattia `-
