Package: apt
Version: 1.6~alpha3
Severity: normal

Dear all,

Just to share, I *think* I'm sharing the same experience as felt/seen
by others.

I disconnected my network modem and reconnected in the case where my
ISP does trip you connection and makes it 0 (zeto at the end.) . I
disconnected and reconnected and this is what ping was showing me -

ping: sendmsg: Network is unreachable
>From _gateway (192.168.1.1) icmp_seq=623 Destination Net Unreachable
64 bytes from klecker4.snt.utwente.nl (130.89.148.14): icmp_seq=712
ttl=53 time=220 ms

As shared above, all the other tools were working which strengthen the
idea that either apt or the archive is broken.  This is the output
that apt shares while updaating th iendex.

I am guessing it is as shared in the bug-report above..

Please let me know if any more info. is needed.

Also if manual upgradation of apt, libapt both which are right now
hitting unstable could improve the output.
