(sorry for double-posting, forgot to keep the bug in cc) Hi
> This issue can be solved by supplying '--debootstrap-options > "--include=apt-transport-https"' to lb config on the command line or > in auto/config. Thanks for the suggestion! It looks like the '--debootstrap-options' switch was already implemented in jessie but was undocumented. Now it's even in the lb_config manpage. Cool. Unfortunately, it still doesn't work with the additional switch. The build process ignores/errs on https archive with error messages similar to this one: ----------------------- P: Configuring file /etc/apt/sources.list OK Ign:1 https://download.jitsi.org stable/ InRelease Ign:2 https://download.jitsi.org stable/ Release Ign:3 https://download.jitsi.org stable/ Packages Ign:4 https://download.jitsi.org stable/ Translation-en Ign:3 https://download.jitsi.org stable/ Packages Ign:4 https://download.jitsi.org stable/ Translation-en Ign:3 https://download.jitsi.org stable/ Packages Ign:4 https://download.jitsi.org stable/ Translation-en Ign:3 https://download.jitsi.org stable/ Packages Ign:4 https://download.jitsi.org stable/ Translation-en Ign:3 https://download.jitsi.org stable/ Packages Get:5 http://security.debian.org stretch/updates InRelease [62.9 kB] Ign:4 https://download.jitsi.org stable/ Translation-en Get:6 http://security.debian.org stretch/updates/main Sources [54.3 kB] Err:3 https://download.jitsi.org stable/ Packages Get:7 http://security.debian.org stretch/updates/main amd64 Packages [139 kB] Ign:4 https://download.jitsi.org stable/ Translation-en Get:8 http://security.debian.org stretch/updates/main Translation-en [60.0 kB] Ign:9 http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch InRelease Get:10 http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch-updates InRelease [88.5 kB] Hit:11 http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch Release Get:13 http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch/main Sources [6749 kB] Get:14 http://ftp.debian.org/debian stretch/main Translation-en [5393 kB] Fetched 12.5 MB in 18s (661 kB/s) Reading package lists...

Done ----------------------- Attached is a simple script to reproduce the error above. Just create an empty directory, put the script inside it and run it as root. Could you reproduce the issue? Is there another command line switch, configuration or patch necessary to support https archives? Best Ronny
