Description

Resolving hostnames doesn't work inside chroot. Check if only curl is causing problems, or wget as well. Try libxml2's nano* functions too.

Resolving hostnames inside chroot works fine if /etc/resolv.conf is put in place inside new root before any attempts are made. Downloading works fine without resolving if IP addresses are using in URLs instead of hostnames.

Changing download libraries is not going to address this situation, it is the way standard resolver libraries work.
