Package: apt Version: 0.9.7.9+deb7u2 Currently, apt requires install of an additional package apt-transport-https in order to use HTTPS

E: The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/https could not be found. This is an important security bug for two reasons. Its irresponsible to expose what packages a user has on their computers before they update. An attacker could simply interrupt the package download and exploit a *known* security hole before a user can upgrade their package. However, its also important to deploy SSL *everywhere* and by default. Freddy Martinez -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
