Hi All!

I can't install Maemo 5 SDK because apt-get inside scratchbox timeouts!

I know there are other threads about similar problems, but they might be different than mine:
Problem with installing SDK in Ubuntu 9.10
repos down?
Not able to connect to Repository

I also tried the List of Repository Fixes, but the problems reported there where also different.

Here's are the steps that I did before hitting the problem:

First I tried to use the new GUI installer to install the SDK in a fresh Ubuntu 9.10 installation. It failed, so I tried the
manual installation (which I used on another machine and worked flawlessly).

All as well until I tried to install the Nokia proprietary binary packages inside scratchbox. Here's what I get:

Code:

[sbox-FREMANTLE_ARMEL: ~] > fakeroot apt-get install nokia-binaries nokia-apps
[...]
Install these packages without verification [y/N]? Y
0% [Waiting for headers]

Err http://repository.maemo.org fremantle/<...>/nokia-binaries
hildon-control-panel-personalisation-l10n-ruru 6.0+r7152+0m5
  408 Request Time-out [IP: 200.216.69.246 80]

Using tcpdump, I noticed that the request seemed just right, but the answer was:

Code:

HTTP/1.0 408 Request Time-out

The server timed out while waiting for the browser's request.<P>
Reference #2.2dd8f648.1261442756.0
</BODY></HTML>

I used the parameter "--print-uris" with apt-get to get the URL that was timing out, and tested it outside scratchbox (with Firefox), and the download worked just fine!

Then I tested the URL inside scratchbox with wget, and it also worked fine! (Even with --user-agent='Debian APT-HTTP/1.3')

So this is not a server problem and perhaps not a scratchbox problem since it happens only with apt-get (inside scratchbox).

Does anyone have any idea of what can be causing this, and how to solve it?

Thanks in advance!
