I'm seeing this problem right now with the same mirror (ftp.fi.debian.org). Indeed tcpdump shows that APT actually tries IPv4, but the server just replies with a single RST packet. So it's just the error message that's very misleading, the actual operation of APT is correct. Maybe the error message could be improved somehow since I also first thought that APT was trying to use IPv6 (which my ISP doesn't support). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
