Package: installation
Severity: wishlist

I tried to install debian behind an apt-proxy and the installations
hangs when fetching packages during installation (Errormsg on ALT-F4).
See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=388769 .

It seems that all Debian etch installations and probably upgrades
behind a sarge apt-proxy fail because of apt-proxy bug 374405:
> Incompatible with full URL HTTP requests from recent apt versions
> http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=374405

Upgrading the apt-proxy from sarge to backports.org solved the 
installation-problem.

IMHO it would be nice to have a hint / warning about sarge apt-proxy
in the sarge to etch upgrade instructions. Otherwise many people may stumble
over this incompatibility.

For installation a hint in d-i mirror selection could be sufficient.
See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=388845 .


Bye,
Wolfgang

I'm closing this bug since it is redundant with your other two reports.
Please file only one bug report per issue.
