All comments in the bug indicate one of the following:
(a) bug in libc and fixed now
(b) temporary network issues
(c) misconfiguration
At no point did any comment indicate a bug in APT. Unless you can show
that
sudo debootstrap natty natty; sudo chroot natty apt-get update
(and then bisect for maverick, lucid) does not work, please do not comment
further
on this issue. Or try reproducing it with a chroot of your own release instead
of natty
and see if it works, thus ruling out (c).
This bug turned into a network setup support channel, which is not the intention
of bugs. I do not want to hear anything about clicking anything, whether $RANDOM
programs work, or which networks are used. Unless someone serious can reproduce
the bug in a clean natty environment, there is no bug.
** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu)
