#1777 mpm: Couldn't resolve host name

[Pedro Hoton]

Hi,
In can not update my textlive package system. My platform is Linux (Kubuntu 9.04) and when I run the command

sudo mpm --update-db --verbose --trace

I obtain the following output

I obtain the output

There is something wrong with mpm? Or is a network issue.
Thanks in advance.
