Description

When attempting to connect to Linode through the Linode provider, I am receiving a dropped connection. The following DEBUG information is attached.

I have also found that when taking the below curl request and sending it normally, I do not have any errors on getting a response.

1. -------- begin 140040111659984 request ----------
   curl -i -X GET -H 'Host: api.linode.com' -H 'X-LC-Request-ID: 140040111659984' -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate' -H 'User-Agent: libcloud/0.18.0 (Linode) ' --compress 'https://api.linode.com:443/?api_key=sekrit&api_responseFormat=json&api_action=avail.linodeplans'

Testing with a separate library also based on httplib , I found that it is not failing when connecting to the Linode API however.
