Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apt

Sometimes, "apt-get install" works fine, but most of the time it hangs
fetching the first package and says "[waiting for headers]" for about 5
minutes or more.  If I wait it will eventually clear up and download the
packages. If I try to use "wget" to download the package in question it
works just fine.

I have a Wireshark capture file which might be helpful in diagnosing the
problem.  I've attached it to this report.
