I missed a step here, as `apt source` applies the existing patches, so we apparently need to apply this patch too: patch -p1 < debian/patches/0001-Fix-for-577-DNS-retry-sloth.patch > debuild -uc -us If you can try this and confirm this patch as packaged fixes your problem, that would help me move forward with this. -- Richard
