Description Eilís Ní Fhlannagáin 2016-06-23 08:43:46 UTC 
if you add basic auth to the SSTATE_MIRRORS url (and I would imagine others that use fethc) bitbake ignores the mirror: 

Example:

file://.* https://foo.com/sstate/PATH;user=foo:bar;downloadfilename=PATH

fetch fails with a bunch of 401 HEAD methods in apache logs.

But:

file://.* https://foo.com/sstate/PATH;downloadfilename=PATH

passes and uses the mirror.

My guess is that this is happening in checkstatus in wget.py as it looks like it's not even attempting to use authentication there.
