Hi. I'm just installed ghc and some packages including cabal-install and
want to do "cabal update". I have squid proxy in local network. When i use
just "cabal update", i see:
=================================================================
sparrow@vb:~/.cabal$ cabal update -v3

When i try to use "sudo cabal update":

http_proxy and cabal version:
=================================================================
sparrow@vb:~/.cabal$ set | grep HTTP
HTTP_PROXY=http://local_proxy:proxy_port/
sparrow@vb:~/.cabal$ cabal --v
cabal-install version 0.10.2
using version 1.10.2.0 of the Cabal library
sparrow@vb:~/.cabal$
=================================================================
So, if i son't use sudo, cabal go through proxy, but hasn't permissions.
And if i use sudo, cabal don't use proxy.
