Package: apt Version: 1.5~alpha1 Severity: wishlist Hi,
After enabling the Dir::Bin::Methods::https method on a machine without ``ca-certificates`` installed I get: $ apt-get update Ign:1 https://debian.host.com lamby InRelease Err:2 https://debian.host.com lamby Release Could not load TLS certificates: Success. Hit:3 http://cdn-fastly.deb.debian.org/debian sid InRelease Hit:4 http://cdn-fastly.deb.debian.org/debian experimental InRelease Reading package lists... Done E: The repository 'https://debian.host.com lamby Release' does not have a Release file. N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default. N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details. This means that it loaded zero certificates from the system CA store, but the "Could not load TLS certificates: Success." error message is: a) A little bit strange; it's an error of sorts, but it ends with the word "Success". b) Not very helpful; it could suggest installing the ``ca-certificates`` package.
