The default time out now is: - 120s * #ip-addresses before bionic - 120s + 250ms * #ip-addresses for bionic
That's a substantial improvement. I still think we should lower the timeout from 120s to 20s for cosmic, bringing this down to 20s + 250ms * #ipaddr (if we estimate up to 4 ip addresses, it will succeed or fail within 21s). I'd be open to backporting happy-eyeballs to xenial too, once it has spent some more time in bionic. The changes are local to a single file (methods/connect.cc), but they are quite big relative to that file, so we should be careful. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1766542 Title: Installation blocks when the machine is behind a proxy server Status in OEM Priority Project: Confirmed Status in apt package in Ubuntu: New Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in apt source package in Bionic: New Status in ubiquity source package in Bionic: New Bug description: When the machine is behind a proxy server, the installation will block for a while (several minutes) to retrieve the package lists. The timeouts are too long and makes user feels the machine may have some problems. The symptom is similar with bug #14599, but it seems the apt-setup module was rewritten. Another method to trigger this issue is to make the machine cannot access to the Internet, for instance: a wrong gateway.
