Hi guys
I feel that my problem is that the synaptic always choose
ncu.dl.sourceforge.net as the downloading source. The server seems to be
unavailable and the synaptic never tries another server. If there is a way to
change the source the problem might be resolved. FYI this is the closest

I think this is a DNS resolver issue.
I resolved it installing pdns-recursor and setting my network manually.

Centre when installing 9.10. I queued a number of installations from
USC and had repeated messages about failures, around 5 or 6 programs

the patch in #21.
Besides ClamAV and wine, what didn't work?

please assign the bug to you. If not, its status should probably remain

To me it seems a pb of DNS time out.
I solved the pb with this workaround/dirty patch.
In the file /var/lib/dpkg/info/ttf-mscorefonts-installer.postinst (coming with
package first install),
I removed the DNS time out in watchdog line 148 to get
if ! wget --continue --tries=1
Yes, and in karmic seems to be a problem with dns anyhow.
I installed pdns-recursor. Now it works without the additional lines and
also browsing is as fast as usual again (e.g. this site).
BTW, there's no problem with my provider's name server.
