Of course they're not, which is why we print something like E: Failed to fetch http://fdsfdijdfsds.exsapl/dodod Could not resolve 'fdsfdijdfsds.exsapl' when getaddrinfo() returns EAI_NONAME or EAI_SERVICE. In your case, getaddrinfo() returned none of the following: - EAI_NONAME - EAI_SERVICE - EAI_AGAIN - EAI_SYSTEM If you can figure out what it returned, please tell us. -- debian developer - deb.li/jak | jak-linux.org - free software dev ubuntu core developer i speak de, en
