Package: apt Version: 0.5.4 (I am a bit unsure whether to report this bug against apt or dpkg)
Apt's (0.5.4, woody) IPv6 ftp method seems to be broken: # apt-get update Get:1 ftp://ftp.freenet.de woody/main Packages [1777kB] Err ftp://ftp.freenet.de woody/main Packages EPRT failed, server said: Syntax error.

[IP: 2001:748:100:50::5 21] [...] The server log file shows that apt sends the clients IP-adresse as raw binary data and not ASCII-encoded. That's wrong. 2003-01-02 10:46:40 [31245]: 3ffe:400:123:0:0:0:0:123!4280: < EPRT |2|<A0>*'@<E4><F6><FF><BF>|<BC><EE><FF><BF>,<E9><FF><BF>1| Hajo
