I've just pushed the changes needed for layman to verify the https
connection to download any files.  Python-2.6 and 2.7 lack the needed
SNI capability, so needed to change the deps.  I have changed to code to
use dev-python/requests which includes urllib3 and some contributed code
to enable the SNI capability in python2.6 and 2.7.  It needed 3
additional deps in order to enable that capability.

Unfortunately so far most of them are lacking many of layman's current
keywords.  So could those people please test and keyword those pkgs they
are able to.  It will be needed for a layman-2.0.1 release in the near
future.

    >=dev-python/requests-1.2.1
    dev-python/ndg-httpsclient
    dev-python/pyasn1
    >=dev-python/pyopenssl-0.13


Once I have made the make.conf ==> repos.conf changes, I will make a
2.0.1 release.
