Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: 12.04, Unity, on a x220. Go into system settings => network => Network Proxy => Method => Manual Set a proxy (I chose 'goats' for the http bit, and 8080 as the port. Click on 'apply system wide'. Note that /etc/environment contains 'http_proxy="http://goats:8080";' Then go into system settings => network => Network Proxy => Method => Automatic Set my automatic proxy config URL to my companies wpad.dat. Click on 'apply system wide' Note that /etc/environment still contains 'http_proxy="http://goats:8080";. This ends up hosing specific applications that read the proxy from the environment, instead of from wherever GNOME stores this data.
