Bug Description
How to reproduce:
- have an APT repository over https
deb https:/
- have APT go though an HTTP proxy which requires HTTP authentication
apt-get -o Acquire:
Expected results:
package lists are downloaded correctly
Actual result:
Failed to fetch https:/
etc
The problem is that the https transport mangles the proxy string before passing it to curl and strips the proxy credentials.
See attached patch to fix it.
