Title:
  HTTPS proxy support via Net::SSL is broken

Status in libnet-http-perl source package in Precise:
  Won't Fix
Status in libnet-http-perl package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Using an HTTPS proxy via Net::SSL (Crypt::SSLeay) is broken in Net::HTTP 6.02. 
  Upstream fixed this in Net::HTTP 6.03; see https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=72790 for details.
  Any chance that we can get this fix into precise? This bug breaks a lot of my perl code after upgrading from 10.04 to 12.04.

  
  You can also use the attached ssl.pl to reproduce the problem(you'll need to modify the HTTPS_PROXY variable). It produces the following error on a stock 12.04 installation:
