Package: libc6 Version: 2.13-8 Tags: upstream Typical amd64 experimental system. No ipv6 in sight. Since the last upgrade[*] (libc6 2.13-7 -> 2.13-8), programs like wget that use getaddrinfo are failing resolution instead of resolving some hosts:
| $ wget http://repo.or.cz/ | --2011-06-30 23:37:55-- http://repo.or.cz/ | Resolving repo.or.cz... failed: No address associated with hostname. | wget: unable to resolve host address “repo.or.cz” nslookup shows the cause: | $ nslookup repo.or.cz | ;; Got recursion not available from 172.16.0.1, trying next server | Server: 8.8.8.8 | Address: 8.8.8.8#53 | | Non-authoritative answer: | Name: repo.or.cz | Address: 195.113.20.142 That is, the crazy wireless router in this wireless network provides a nonrecursive DNS server through DHCP and although resolv.conf also includes 8.8.8.8 for sanity, and the updated libc doesn't seem to use the latter any more. Downgrading to 2.13-7 fixes it. Bug?
