Comment 9 for bug 1964686

Hi,

I could successfully validate that the fix works. I initially installed the current official jammy package, it was hanging again, then I installed your ppa repo and upgraded the packages, and it worked. See the following relevant part of my testing (ran in Docker):

About reproducing the original issue, I don't really know how to do it. I tried starting the container with "--dns 8.8.8.8" and this was enough to fix the issue with the current official jammy package. I also tried with two DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4). I don't know what is so special about our corporate DNS.

Since I could validate the fix on my side, will this land in an official jammy package update before the official release of jammy in april ?

Cheers,
Romain
