I wonder how many people are having this problems. I find it odd why it 
needs to contact your htdig server. 

I also e-mailed pac...@qa... about this, but got no replies so 
far. Looking at http://packages.qa.debian.org/h/htdig.html doesn't show 
anything interesting about htdig. :( Maybe you guys can figure out 
what's going on?

I have removed the crondaily's htdig for now.
