Vish (vish) has assigned this bug to you for apt in ubuntu:
When something wicked happens when trying to download packages, this is
the error message one gets:
"something wicked happened resolving 'dk.archive.ubuntu.com:http' (-5 -
No address associated with hostname)"
This error message does not say anything about whether the error is
local (ie. something the user has any chance to do anything about) or
related to other things (is the host server down? Or is the DNS-server
failing to do its deed?)
Generally, the text isn't very newbie friendly
