User SSL tunnel are not wanted, bad, and not what is needed for the original use case:
Original wishlist request: "https sources are supported now, but not through a http proxy for which support must be added (CONNECT method ?) to get it work. apt-cacher-ng used in managed mode (ForceManaged: 1) with a proxy: Proxy:https://username:[email protected]:3128 Remap-somesoft:/somesoft ; https://apt.foo.bar/debian/ " The keypoint here is the managed mode. For an http apt.foo.org source tre flow is: user --http--> apt-cacher-ng ------http ------> Proxy ------http------> apt.foo.org With the implementation of the proxy "connect" method, the flow would be for an https apt.bar.org source: (http + connect->Proxy) = user --http--> apt-cacher-ng ------ https through Proxy -------------> apt.bar.org For cache and security purpose, we do not want to allow user to create tunnels trough apt-cacher-ng.
