+The DNS name <code>deb.torproject.org</code> is actually a set of independent
+servers in a DNS round robin configuration.  If you for some reason cannot
+access it you might try to use the name of one of its part instead.  Try
+<code>deb-master.torproject.org</code>,
+<code>mirror.netcologne.de</code> or
+<code>tor.mirror.youam.de</code>.
