Bug#51315: apt: inaccuracy in /usr/share/man/man5/apt.conf.5.gz ?



Package: apt
Version: 0.3.14
Severity: normal

Hello!

in `man apt.conf` I see:

ftp     FTP URis; ftp::Proxy is the default proxy server to use.    It is
	in   the   standard   form   of http://[[user][:pass]@]host[:port]/
					^^^^
	and is overriden by the ftp_proxy environment variable.

It seems to me that [[user][:pass]@]host applicable to ftp, not http.
