Package: aptitude
Version: 0.7.5-3

Some internet providers change the IP address of clients frequently - approximately once a minute instead of once a day. "aptitude update" and aptitude downloads executed by such clients cannot deal with this fact - neither with passive nor with active sockets. They manage to download a bit before the IP change and then say that a socket cannot be connected.

An improvement is needed. If it's already implemented, I'd like to see the documentation of this feature.

Thanks in advance

Jaakov
