I believe that I've tracked down the problem to differences that occur between the repos located at the various IPs that kernel.org translates to (zeus-pub1: 204.152.191.5 and zeus-pub2: 204.152.191.37). In this case, it appears that the repo located at zeus-pub1 has been updated, but the changes haven't propagated over to zeus-pub2 yet. The result is that one call fetches a list of objects, but the next call goes to the other IP, and it can't find an object it needs, so it ends up dying. This is probably a temporary error that will periodically (and probably very rarely) occur when pulling from a source with more than a single IP and some lag before the mirror is updated. Is this an issue that we need to watch for and program around (other than forcing www.kernel.org's IP in /etc/hosts), or is it just one of those things that should be such a rare occurrance that we shouldn't have to worry about it?
