Description Jonathan Kamens 2011-07-13 04:26:38 UTC
DNS lookups through getaddrinfo fail intermittently, caused by a bug in the resolver library when the responses to the A and AAAA queries sent out by the resolver library are returned in reverse order and the first one that is returned is a server failure.

Comment 1 Jonathan Kamens 2011-07-13 04:27:35 UTC
Workaround is to put "options single-request" in /etc/resolv.conf.
