Bug#826039: liblwp-protocol-https-perl: Two versions of https.pm (6.06) have different contents and one always checks certificates

Hi

Note that:
* LWP::Protocol::https works with LWP::UserAgent
* LWP::Protocol::https on CPAN and on Debian/Jessie have the same version
 with some differences to better integrate with Debian (for instance, Debian 
certificates are used instead of Mozilla::CA)
* LWP::UserAgent is v 6.02 on Debian/jessie and 6.15 on CPAN

The last point is expected and may explain the different behavior.

Could you check that:
* $ENV{PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME} is set *before* creating LWP::UserAgent
* LWP::UserAgent is created without ssl_opts/verify_hostname parameter

HTH
