+ [ Experimental https support in http ]
+ The http method will eventually replace the curl-based https method, but for
+ now, this is an opt-in experiment that can be enabled by setting
+ Dir::Bin::Methods::https to "http". Known issues:
+ - We do not support HTTPS proxies yet
+ - We do not support proxying HTTPS connections yet (CONNECT)
+ - IssuerCert and SslForceVersion are unsupported
+ TLS code paths can be disabled by setting Acquire::AllowTLS to "false".
+
+ [ Release Info Changes ]
+ If values like Origin, Label, and Codename change in a Release file,
+ update fails, or asks a user (if interactive). Various
+ --allow-releaseinfo-change are provided for non-interactive use.
