Package: python-urllib3 Version: 1.8.2-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
The original bug report is here: https://lists.debian.org/debian-python/2014/06/msg00003.html In short, a fix that made it into Python 2.7.7 and 3.4.1 changes the behavior of httplib.HTTPConnection's tunneling handling. pip is among the modules affected by this change: it is unusable if one is behind an HTTP proxy, as it tries to connect via HTTPS to https://pypi.python.org/simple/pip/ and fails. A fix for this issue was committed to urllib3, and is part of the 1.8.3 release. Please consider updating to it (this release also contains a handful of other bug fixes too). -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.14-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages python-urllib3 depends on: ii python-six 1.7.3-1 pn python:any <none> Versions of packages python-urllib3 recommends: ii ca-certificates 20140325 python-urllib3 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
