[packagekit] packagekit connection to https server not established

[tomw]

Hi, 

I'm struggling with getting a connection to an https server using
packagekit. The issue is, that using the apt alone with the same repo
works fine, trying to update packages using packagekit however, does not
even show traces in the server logs. Running packagekitd in verbose mode
does not provide any hints or errors either and it seems that the
connection to the server is not established at all. Currently I'm using
0.7.6 with the default aptcc backend.

Any pointers where to search for? 

thanks
