2018-06-26 07:50:27 Julian Andres Klode description When the machine is behind a proxy server, the installation will block for a while (several minutes) to retrieve the package lists. The timeouts are too long and makes user feels the machine may have some problems. The symptom is similar with bug #14599, but it seems the apt-setup module was rewritten. Another method to trigger this issue is to make the machine cannot access to the Internet, for instance: a wrong gateway. Image: 16.04 [Impact] APT takes a long time to notice when certain connections time out [Test case] * Change the default route to not route stuff successfully (wrong gateway, for example) * Make your sources.list look like this: deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic main restricted deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates main restricted * Run apt update You should see that it fails with a long verbose error message for the first entry, with all possible IP addresses listed in it; while for the second one it fails with just "Unable to connect to archive.ubuntu.com:http:" as it recognizes it has been blacklisted.

[Regression potential] APT will not attempt to retry the host given that it could not connect to it for previous entries. If your network recovered in the meantime, it might update less than previously.
