2017-09-26proper error reporting for v3 onion servicesDavid Kalnischkies
APT connects just fine to any .onion address given, only if the connect fails somehow it will perform checks on the sanity of which in this case is checking the length as they are well defined and as the strings are arbitrary a user typing them easily mistypes which apt should can be slightly more helpful in figuring out by saying the onion hasn't the required length.
2016-11-10improve SOCKS error messages for http slightlyDavid Kalnischkies
The 0.0.0.0:0 tor reports is pretty useless by itself, but even if an IP would be reported it is better to show the user the hostname we wanted the proxy to connect to in the same error message. We improve upon it further by looking for this bind address in particular and remap error messages slightly to give users a better chance of figuring out what went wrong. Upstream Tor can't do that as it is technically wrong.
2016-08-10implement socks5h proxy support for http methodDavid Kalnischkies
Socks support is a requested feature in sofar that the internet is actually believing Acquire::socks::Proxy would exist. It doesn't and this commit isn't adding it as that isn't how our configuration works, but it allows Acquire::http::Proxy="socks5h://…". The HTTPS method was changed already to support socks proxies (all versions) via curl. This commit implements only SOCKS5 (RFC1928) with no auth or pass&user auth (RFC1929), but not GSSAPI which is required by the RFC. The 'h' in the protocol name further indicates that DNS resolution is delegated to the socks proxy rather than performed locally. The implementation works and was tested with Tor as socks proxy for which implementing socks5h only can actually be considered a feature. Closes: 744934
