Well I am. The problem with it is, if you have http_proxy and ftp_proxy variables set in /etc/profile.d/proxy.sh (so basically they're available in your environment), urpmi is going to use that proxy, but the Software Sources Manager doesn't show that proxy, it leads you to believe one won't be used. It can make it hard for naive users to diagnose problems that arise because of using the proxy. It should be really easy for the Software Sources Manager to check for those environment variables and show the proxy in the GUI. >> to rpmdrake-sources like we discussed long ago (you >> didn't do it then because you didn't want to break >> drakconf and translations too close to release)? > > Well I've renamed it to edit-urpm-media but forgot it was decided > to rename it like that. "rpmdrake-edit-media" maybe? I like rpmdrake-sources better (especially considering the GUI name is Software Sources Manager), but that's not bad.
