Package: Apt

Version: 1.8.2.2

When using APT to get packages from a https site and using a proxy APT replaces 
the host header with the proxy's name and port

This means any proxy configured to reject an invalid host header, will reject 
the connection.

This bug has been fixed in the downstream ubuntu APT package version 1.8.3 as 
discussed below
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1838771

However, Debian has not included this fix in its repository
