Package: apt-transport-https Version: 0.8.10.3+squeeze1 Severity: important
We use HTTP Basic Auth to protect some company-internal packages, such as *.deb files made from commercial software we purchased to ease installation and management. Now I want to use https, which otherwise works, with it, with a stanza like this in sources.list: deb https://uSeR:pAsS@hOsTnAmE/ squeeze tarent This results in: W: Failed to fetch https://hOsTnAmE/dists/squeeze/tarent/binary-i386/Packages.bz2 The requested URL returned error: 403 Remove the 's' between 'http' and '://' and it works. This basically defeats the purposeā¦ I was considering making this RC, for the apt-transport-https package, but keep it at important for now. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.2 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-xen-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages apt-transport-https depends on: ii apt [libapt-pkg4.10] 0.8.10.3+squeeze1 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcurl3-gnutls 7.21.0-2 Multi-protocol file transfer libra ii libgcc1 1:4.4.5-8 GCC support library ii libstdc++6 4.4.5-8 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 apt-transport-https recommends no packages. apt-transport-https suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
