Dear Maintainer,
debian-installer has a choice between HTTP/HTTPS/FTP while setting up package manager in expert install mode.

If HTTPS is chosen and security repository enabled it will be added to /etc/apt/sources.list with http:// as it's protocol instead of https:// (may be same with FTP too, I didn't have a chance to check it).

Every other mirror was added with https:// as expected. This includes bookworm, bookworm-updates and bookworm-backports.

This can be easily fixed later in installed system by editing /etc/apt/sources.list without any consequences.

Thank you for attention.

Hi,

As far as I can tell this was already reported in bug #860467.

Cheers,
