Comment 49 for bug 1651923

I have tested the new package on Xenial, following the instructions in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed

APT packages installed before updating:

apt 1.2.18
apt-transport-https 1.2.18
apt-utils 1.2.18
libapt-inst2.0 1.2.18
libapt-pkg5.0 1.2.18

Bug cases reproduced before updating:

1) dpkg-reconfigure update-notifier-common (calls apt-helper)
2) apt-helper download-file downloads.sourceforge.net
3) apt-helper download-file people.debian.org/~jak

Bug case *not* reproduced before updating:

4) apt-helper download-file kxstudio.linuxaudio.org

In this case, it appears that GitHub fixed its redirect response so it does not include spaces anymore (I see a %20 in the reply now).
