Oh I guess error messages post-connect do not include the IP address, as
we don't know it anymore.

Given the structure of the non-interactive log, I slightly fail to see
how we could include connection messages. UX-wise, it does not make much
sense to give you details you're not going to need 99.9% of the time.

Title:
  Include IPs in apt-get output

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi,

  When running apt-get update/dist-upgrade, output looks like this:

  | Hit:6 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-updates InRelease
  | Get:7 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal/main amd64 Packages [972 kB]
  | Get:8 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal/main amd64 c-n-f Metadata [29.1 kB]

  archive.u.c resolves to multiple IPs. azure.archive.u.c resolves to a
  load balancer (Azure's Traffic Manager). It would be nice if we also
  had the IPs of the servers/hosts in the output and would really help
  us in determining which servers or regions users may be experiencing
  issues with.
