Triggered by #11900.
Comment 1 Peter Müller 2020-04-11 09:49:37 UTC 
libwww-perl needs an upgrade anyway. At the moment, LWP::UserAgent does not support CONNECT method, which is required for HTTPS in most cases.

It is interesting to see that this is not necessary, defining a HTTP proxy for HTTPS instead works, but the current Pakfire implementation seems to be faulty. :-/

libwww-perl update @ https://patchwork.ipfire.org/patch/2934/
