Bug Description

Upon upgrading to 14.04 from 12.04, proxytunnel stopped working for me:

$ proxytunnel -E -p xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:443 -d 127.0.0.1:22
Via xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:443 -> 127.0.0.1:22
analyze_HTTP: readline failed: Connection closed by remote host

However, a Debian Wheezy box on the same LAN as my Ubuntu one can connect successfully. My currently workaround is to install the Wheezy package (version given as 1.9.0-5) on 14.04, and that works. Both client architectures are amd64.

The server is Apache 2.2.22-13+deb7u3 on Debian Wheezy i386 with the mod-proxy-connect patch (the only modification), self-compiled via "the Debian way".

A tcpdump -vvv of a *failed* connection (Ubuntu package 1.9.0-svn250-3) is attached.

This is probably due to the server refusing SSLv3 connections and has been fixed upstream, see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=767301
