Package: apt
Version: 0.3.19 (STATIC VERSION by JAB)
After installing apt_0.3.19_i386.deb and dpkg_1_6_13_i386.deb (static
versions) on a 2.0 debian machine and setting the source.list to
deb ftp://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free
deb ftp://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main contrib non-free
and running apt-get update i get the following output.

W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these missing files
E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old
ones used instead.
trotski:~#
It seems that resolving the hostnames to ip addresses does not work. When
I substitute the ip addresses in the sources.list file the whole stuff
works like it should.
trotski:/etc# cat debian_version
2.0
trotski:/etc# cat hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.1.1 trotski.koornbeurs.net trotski
trotski:/etc# cat resolv.conf
nameserver 127.0.0.1
search koornbeurs.net
#nameserver 130.161.180.1
trotski:/etc# uname -a
Linux trotski 2.0.35 #11 Fri Nov 19 12:40:11 CET 1999 i386 unknown
trotski:/etc# ls -l /lib/libc.so.6
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Oct 28 1998 /lib/libc.so.6 -> libc-2.0.7.so
trotski:/etc#
This might all be because of a misconfigured nameserver, but it seems
strange anyway.
