Package: apt Version: 0.8.0 Severity: normal Current versions of apt frequently fail to obtain updates from official Debian ftp archives:
Get: 1 ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/ unstable/main bluez i386 4.87-2 [560kB] Err ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/ unstable/main bluez i386 4.87-2 Could not connect, passive socket. Failed to fetch ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/b/bluez/bluez_4.87-2_i386.deb Could not connect, passive socket. This problem occurs in Debian Lenny and Debian Squeeze. Older versions of the apt tool work ok, and do not give these errors. It looks like some update has broken the passive ftp support.
