Public bug reported: Binary package hint: apt
I installed google chrome in karmic and later lucid. Google chrome adds the following apt line to update itself: deb http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/ stable main When running apt-get update with this line installed it will hang for exactly two minutes saying "Waiting for headers". I've ran a wireshark dump of the connection and it seems to be stopping right after receiving Release.gpg. After some kind of timeout is reached it seems to close the connection and then download everything else and finish without problems. Attached is the wireshark log of all this. Seems to be some kind of bug in how apt's http code handles the google server. Both wget and curl fetch the file without problems. Why does apt even need its own implementation of an HTTP client? ** Affects: apt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- apt-get hangs with "Waiting for headers" for exactly two minutes on dl.google.com apt line https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/528925 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
