APT doesn't really care for kernel versions, it isn't THAT lowlevel.

(I think you meant /etc/hosts)

My money is on Nils's suggestion, but if that isn't it the only recent
changes to resolving are IDN support (disable it via -o
Acquire::Connect::IDN=false) and support for SRV records (disable it via
-o Acquire::EnableSrvRecords=false). Neither should be responsible
through…
