Package: apt
Version: 1.0.6
This is what happens when you have a repository that makes HTTP->HTTPS
redirection in your sources.lists, and you didn't have
apt-transport-https installed:
# apt-get update
E: The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/https could not be found.
N: Is the package apt-transport-https installed?
It didn't tell me which repository causes the problem, but oh well... Let's try
to install apt-transport-https:
# apt-get install apt-transport-https

Install these packages without verification? [y/N]
E: Some packages could not be authenticated
This is rather user-unfriendly. Why does a problem with one repository
cause authentication warnings for an unrelated repository?
