tcpdump shows no packets moving on the ppp device on either ftp or
ftp-data. Apt isn't even _trying_, and I suspect doesn't realise that
fact.
ftp by hand to the box yields normal results (and normal packet traces
on the ppp device). The hostname resolves fine, and the ftp connection
is unremarkable.
>From the point shown above, apt just sits there, forever. As you can
see, I've strace'd the operation, up until the point that I terminated
it with a SIGINT. Trace is available at the following url:

Proxy configuration from apt.conf:
Queue-Mode "host"; // host|access
// HTTP method configuration
http
{
Proxy "http://127.0.0.1:3128";;
// Proxy::http.us.debian.org "DIRECT"; // Specific per-host setting
Proxy::gpo.schools.net.au "DIRECT";
// Cache Control. Note these do not work with Squid 2.0.2
No-Cache "false";
Max-Age "86400"; // 1 Day age on index files
No-Store "false"; // Prevent the cache from storing archives
};
Commenting out both Proxy lines does not seem to help or hinder the
process in any way.
