Package: auto-apt-proxy
Version: 16.8+deb13u1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
On some hosts I noticed that auto-apt-proxy runs into a timeout and never
yields a proxy even though there is an apt-cacher-ng on the default gateway.
Using htop I saw it recursing into itself through apt-helper.
Adding Acquire::http::Proxy-Auto-Detect= in the hit() function fixes this and
now it yields a working proxy.
