Public bug reported: [Impact] TLS handshakes are reported as fatal errors rather than transient errors like other connection errors on unencrypted connections. This seems wrong - a server may just be spinning up or down and fail during the handshake, and prevents retrying such downloads
[Test plan] A test case has been added to the integration test suite that ensures handshake errors are retried upon configuration. [Where problems could occur] Transient errors do not cause an error exit from apt update, so scripts relying on errors from TLS handshakes in such situations will fail. ** Affects: apt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- 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/1928100 Title: TLS handshake is fatal, not transient - hence not retried Status in apt package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: [Impact] TLS handshakes are reported as fatal errors rather than transient errors like other connection errors on unencrypted connections.
