Errno socket error

[Dean Maniatis]

OS: ubuntu xenial
version: pastebinit v1.5
apt package info: 1.5-1

When running pastebinit behind proxy server i get the following error:

$echo hello | pastebinit -u deanman -b paste.ubuntu.com --verbose
POSTing to: https://paste.ubuntu.com/
Params: content=hello%0A&poster=deanman&syntax=text
Failed to contact the server: [Errno socket error] EOF occurred in violation of protocol (_ssl.c:645)

$ env | grep proxy
no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.0/8,::1
https_proxy=https://<company>:8080/
http_proxy=http://<company>:8080/
ftp_proxy=ftp://<company>:8080/

$ curl google.com #works
