Package: apt-file
Version: 2.0.8.2
Followup-For: Bug #357031

I am experiencing the same problem. Although I set http_proxy
variables etc. it still silently fails in fetching any data. 
(The progress bar bug report is also related to this...)

Is there a workaround for this, or is it simply impossible to use
apt-file from behind a proxy?
