Public bug reported:

The Twitch API has changed to disallow loading streams over HTTP.  This
causes gnome-twitch to crash whenever one tries to open any stream.  The
issue was tracked on the gnome-twitch github page (
https://github.com/vinszent/gnome-twitch/issues/356 ), a fix was written
and merged ( https://github.com/vinszent/gnome-twitch/pull/357 ), and
gnome-twitch release 0.4.2 includes the fix.  Therefore, to restore the
functionality of the package, the repository needs to be updated to
0.4.2, since 0.4.1 has been rendered useless by the API change.

Release: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
gnome-twitch version: 0.4.1-2
Expected behaviour: stream opens and plays after a channel is selected.
Actual behaviour: gnome-twitch says that no backend is installed.  After 
clicking one one of the options in the resulting dialog box, gnome-twitch 
crashes with the message

Error getting stream access token for channel 'lirik' because: Received
unsuccessful response from url
'http://api.twitch.tv/api/channels/lirik/access_token' with code '400'
and body '{"error":"Bad Request","status":400,"message":"Requests must
be made over SSL"}'

or similar.

** Affects: gnome-twitch (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Package changed: openssh (Ubuntu) => gnome-twitch (Ubuntu)
