1.5~alpha4 is available now including support for https:// proxies, CONNECT on http(s) proxies, fixing several bugs, and switching the default https method over (the old one is installed as curl{,+http,+https} if you install apt-transport-https). apt now provides apt-transport-https (versioned) so you can easily remove it even if you have something depending on it. Earlier today 1.5~alpha3 fixed a regression introduced in 1.5~alpha2 (all downloads would fail, complaining about not being able to read CaInfo - I forgot an 'else' before the opening brace - sorry). -- Debian Developer - deb.li/jak | jak-linux.org - free software dev | Ubuntu Core Developer | When replying, only quote what is necessary, and write each reply directly below the part(s) it pertains to ('inline').
