if the other mirrors do not have a ipv6 dns record there is nothing strange about this > Neither I have glibc installed. libc6 is the latest version on Debian > repo this problem can also exist in the resolver library of your router (especially when it also acts as dhcp and/or caching dns server) Setting the correct ipv4 address of ftp.au.debian.org in /etc/hosts might help (depending also upon /etc/nsswitch.conf and other glibc configuration files). Using the OpenDNS servers (or other sane dns servers) in /etc/resolv.conf instead of a buggy caching dns (if any) might also help. But only if your resolver library is not buggy. -- Chi usa software non libero avvelena anche te. Digli di smettere. Informatica=arsenico: minime dosi in rari casi patologici, altrimenti letale.
