This was fixed in the 1.5 series in artful. You can now return http,

Acquire::https::Proxy-Auto-Detect
if you want it to be used for https.
The http method gained native https support, so you can now use http and
https with http, http
Why the "catch" isn't documented anywhere?

an https proxy, not an http proxy url.
I'm not sure how far we should open that up, but https via http and http
via https are things you probably want to wo
