apt-method-https - An HTTP method for APT.

This packaged fills a gap in the APT repertoire - the ability
to use an HTTPS server as a package repository.

Usage is simple; just use sources.list lines of the form:

deb https://secure.server.example.com/debian woody main contrib
deb-src https://secure.server.example.com/debian woody main contrib

i.e. identical to the http method.

Certificate-based verification of both client and server is
available through apt.conf configurables. See
/usr/share/doc/apt-method-https/apt.conf.example
