Package: apt-transport-https
Version: 0.8.10.3+squeeze1
Severity: important

We use HTTP Basic Auth to protect some company-internal packages,
such as *.deb files made from commercial software we purchased to
ease installation and management. Now I want to use https, which
otherwise works, with it, with a stanza like this in sources.list:

deb https://uSeR:pAsS@hOsTnAmE/ squeeze tarent

This results in:

W: Failed to fetch https://hOsTnAmE/dists/squeeze/tarent/binary-i386/Packages.bz2  The requested URL returned error: 403

Remove the 's' between 'http' and '://' and it works.
This basically defeats the purpose… I was considering
making this RC, for the apt-transport-https package,
but keep it at important for now.

Hi,

please ignore this bugreport, it turns out this was
due to a misconfiguration (hidden in multiple stages)
on our side.
