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. ** Affects: apt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Summary changed: - Consider making '-o Acquire::Retries=3' the default + Consider making '-o Acquire::Retries=3' the default for 'apt-get update' ** Summary changed: - Consider making '-o Acquire::Retries=3' the default for 'apt-get update' + Consider making '-o Acquire::Retries=3' the default for 'apt-get update/install/dist-upgrade' ** Description changed: Hi, We operate archive.ubuntu.com as well as mirrors of it in various places.
