Package: apt Version: 2.6.1 For a while I've been seeing odd behaviour where apt ignored the SRV DNS records we inject to redirect deb.debian.org elsewhere (to a local cache, so the entire network benefits without any local setup).
Debugging shows that only a single deb.debian.org A DNS query is performed, and no SRV queries are performed. Googling this yielded https://gist.github.com/tsangwpx/fd3c5c2b9aac53d9d0964cf3dc91b2ed . Apparently this is known behaviour to some people on the internet, but was news to me. Here is a minimal reproducer: $ podman run -it --rm debian:bookworm-slim bash # apt update This will use an A lookup, and thus ignore SRV. This however works: $ podman run -it --rm debian:bookworm-slim bash # echo http 80/tcp > /etc/services # apt update Could this please be made work by default in the common container scenario? So probably without having netbase (provides /etc/services) installed? Thanks, Chris
