Public bug reported:
Hi,
We operate archive.ubuntu.com as well as mirrors of it in various
places. We're getting reports of various CI/CD jobs failing. Sometimes
due to routing issues, issues with overloaded servers/VMs hosting
archive, etc.
Any chance we can make '-o Acquire::Retries=3' the default for 'apt-get
update/install/dist-upgrade'? Preferably with a randomised skew between
retries.
Also, any chance of having apt-get retry with different IPs/hosts
returned from the DNS lookup? (e.g. for archive.ubuntu.com -
91.189.88.142, 91.189.88.152, ...).
Thanks.
