 I still get the "Bad host name" error for IPv6 hosts, both on etch and
sid. I even reinstalled libio-socket-inet6-perl to no avail.

 Researching a bit more, the error seems to come from libwww-perl
(confirmed by a simple test case), which is actually bug #306914.

 Something else I've noticed is that with the version, bzip2 and gzip
complain  about the translation files
("34% [3 Translation-en_US bzip2 0] [Waiting for headers]bzip2: (stdin)
is not a bzip2 file")
which didn't happen on the other versions (though it looks like with
older apt-cacher versions, aptitude doesn't even request them, which is
a bit odd).
