this is strange, netselect is supposed to return the symbolic name it founds.
However I cannot find the above address either by grepping mirrors_full or
resolving every mirror.

Anyway, I think automatic mirror checks are being done, thus netselect-apt
trusts mirrors_full to provide good informations.

thanks for your report,
