New description:

 On a brand new installation, I got the following error in a window when I
 try to create a new connection (note: I tried with several hostnames and
 even IPs):


 {{{
 Connection failed

 DNS lookup for %h failed. DNS is the network service that translates a
 server name to its Internet address. This error is most often caused by
 having no connection to the Internet or a misconfigured network. It can
 also be caused by an unresponsive DNS server or a firewall preventing
 access to the network.


 }}}

 This makes SFTP unusable for me. The "%h" thing seems to be a problem of
 string formatting. The other protocols don't seem to be affected as far as
 I know.

 Note: I cannot choose 5.3.3 in the Version popup on trac.
