[Bug 1135163] Re: d-i can't install against an https mirror

[Colin Watson]

I'm separating this out again because installing from an HTTPS mirror
requires more work than handling preseeding from HTTPS.  This does
depend on bug 833994 and bug 1172101, but it isn't really a duplicate of
either.

choose-mirror is just one of the components that will need work, but
it'll do for a start.

** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 833994
   debian-installer does not support https when using with preseed files

** Package changed: busybox (Ubuntu) => choose-mirror (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: choose-mirror (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => High

** Changed in: choose-mirror (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Triaged

Title:
  d-i can't install against an https mirror

Status in “choose-mirror” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  It happens that d-i uses the wget from busybox, and as a result, it
  can't install against an https mirror. This is clearly not intended
  behavior, because apt-config is able to deal with https. Perhaps there
  should be a wget udeb that includes the right bits to have ssl
  support, or alternatively, busybox should support it.
