RuTorrent failed to install on fresh Debian 10.6 'Buster'

[surfcode]

I booted up a fresh Debian Buster 10.6 which was installed via the netinstall iso and only added a local user with sudo permissions before using the script.

Used the following command: sudo rtinst --log --webpass mySecretPassword --dload --ssh-default -u myUnixUsername

Everything installed fine except for RuTorrent. Relevant log items pasted and highlighted in bold:

Start of the script:

Checking major 3rd party components Rtorrent: OK xmlrpc-c: OK RuTorrent: OK Autodl-irssi: OK

Middle of the script (comments partly translated to english):

End of the script:

Let me know if you need additional info. Thanks!

I deleted the virtualized Debian Buster installation and created a new one. Did the exact same steps again and RuTorrent still failed after using the install command. First givinig me errors about github.com not being resolved. After 5 minutes I tried the install command again and RuTorrent got installed succesfully.

Cannot wrap my head around what just happend. Maybe Debian was still initializing in the background? That would be weird as Debian is a stable and sane OS.

Issue can be closed.
