Package: multistrap
Version: 2.2.9
Severity: important

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

Hi.

Since (I assume) apt 1.5~alpha1 the following change is in apt (from
apts changelog):

  * fail instead of warn on insecure repositories in apt-get

This makes multistraps initial package download/repository update fail.

I could work around this by applying the attached patch to the
multistrap script in /usr/sbin/multistrap

It adds another option to the apt-get call unconditionally: "-o
Acquire::AllowInsecureRepositories=true"

I am not sure about the implications of this, since I am not familiar
with multistraps code base. Maybe it needs the same guard as the -o
Apt::Get::AllowUnauthenticated=true option?

Marked as important, because the package is unusable like this.

Regards
  Andre
