Perhaps delayed AAAA requests are not your only problem. If you're
adventurous, you could have a look at what seems to be holding it up in
Wireshark. (Though that's for another bug report.)

eglibc is just a source package name: the binary packages that result
from it that appear in your package manager are not necessarily (but
usually are, but in this case, are not) named the same.

http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/eglibc

So the binary version of eglibc is called libc6 in your package manager.
