Martin Wilck added the comment: I think this is a major issue because urllib2 is widely used, and any application using it is useless behind a HTTPS proxy. A Prominent example in the Linux world is yum, the Fedora Linux package management tool. HTTPS proxies are a extermely common in the corporate world.
The cookbook recipe shows that it is possible to implement a CONNECT proxy (with quite a few lines of code, actually), but because it's not part of urllib2 it has been broken by python 2.5. ---------- severity: normal -> major _____________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1424152> _____________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
