I just uploaded 1.4~rc3ubuntu1 to zesty. It's building now, and should hit zesty-proposed soon, and hopefully migrate without issues to zesty release repository.
This is the included workaround for now: commit 12d5863a6ecd358db5645a4c1ca75576ef3c6232 Author: Julian Andres Klode <j...@debian.org> Date: Thu Dec 29 14:16:07 2016 +0100 https: Quote path in URL before passing it to curl Curl requires URLs to be urlencoded. We are however giving it undecoded URLs. This causes it go completely nuts if there is a space in the URI, producing requests like: GET /a file HTTP/1.1 which the servers then interpret as a GET request for "/a" with HTTP version "file" or some other non-sense. This works around the issue by encoding the path component of the URL. I'm not sure if we should encode other parts of the URL as well, this one seems to do the trick for the actual issue at hand. A more correct fix is to avoid the dequoting and (re-)quoting of URLs when a redirect occurs / a new request is sent. That's been on the radar for probably a year or two now, but nobody bothered implementing that yet.

The SRU procedure takes a few weeks though - in fact, many of the current changes pending for xenial are waiting since 2 months already. Trusty also has an issue with the downloads, BTW, but it just hangs completely, so there's probably a different issue there. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1651923 Title: apt https method decodes redirect locations and sends them to the destination undecoded.
