Think about that: Your proxy returns 403 and you have 20 repositories, and now get 20 messages, each 100 lines long because your proxy decided to go fancy.
And of course: If reported as an actual error message, these things also become python exceptions. Or did you really just mean the message after the status code (RFC calls it reason-phrase) and not the entire response body? That's usually reasonable short. That said, apt-cacher-ng gets very creative with these messages, other proxies stick to the standard messages. And the HTTP standard says a client should ignore the messages completely, as they are legacy (compare RFC 7230, 3.1.2). So I'm not sure it's worthwhile to display the reason-phrase either: It's only used by apt-cacher-ng and the standard says we should ignore its contents. -- 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/1661199 Title: Apt-cacher-ng fails on https repo Status in apt package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in apt-cacher-ng package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Following the instructions to add the docker repo here: https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/linux/ubuntu/ /etc/apt/sources.list contains the repo: deb https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo/ ubuntu-xenial main When running through apt-cacher-ng, apt-get update returns: $ sudo apt-get update Ign:1 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial InRelease Ign:2 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial Release Ign:3 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main amd64 Packages.diff/Index Ign:4 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main i386 Packages Ign:5 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main all Packages Ign:6 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main Translation-en_US Ign:7 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main Translation-en Ign:8 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main amd64 Packages Ign:4 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main i386 Packages Ign:5 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main all Packages Ign:6 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main Translation-en_US Ign:7 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main Translation-en Ign:8 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main amd64 Packages Ign:4 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main i386 Packages Ign:5 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main all Packages Ign:6 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main Translation-en_US Ign:7 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main Translation-en Ign:8 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main amd64 Packages Ign:4 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main i386 Packages Ign:5 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main all Packages Ign:6 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main Translation-en_US Ign:7 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main Translation-en Ign:8 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main amd64 Packages Ign:4 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main i386 Packages Ign:5 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main all Packages Ign:6 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main Translation-en_US Ign:7 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main Translation-en Ign:8 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main amd64 Packages Err:4 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main i386 Packages Received HTTP code 403 from proxy after CONNECT Ign:5 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main all Packages Ign:6 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main Translation-en_US Ign:7 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main Translation-en Ign:8 https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial/main amd64 Packages Ign:9 http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb stable InRelease Hit:10 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial InRelease Hit:11 http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb stable Release Hit:13 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates InRelease Hit:14 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security InRelease Reading package lists...
