Dear all,<br>
When running a dist-upgrade, I got an error message that the method
driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/https could not be found and then had to
install packages without verification. When trying to install
apt-transport-https as recommended, I got the following result:<br>
<pre>The following NEW packages will be installed:
apt-transport-https
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 8 not upgraded.
Need to get 138 kB of archives.
After this operation, 195 kB of additional disk space will be used.
WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated!
apt-transport-https
Install these packages without verification? [y/N] y
E: The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/https could not be found.
N: Is the package apt-transport-https installed?
blah@blubb$
</pre>
So the recommended solution to not being able to install
apt-transport-https is to install apt-transport-https? Does anyone
have an idea if this is something I should ignore or if there is a
way to fix it? Thanks a lot!<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
Stan<br>
