@daniel, could you give some specifics on your issue you are having. Can't your organisation manually modif the apt configuration or environement variable? do you rely on the GNOME tool to apply manually the configuration on each machine, or how does it work?

Unlike 16.x, there is no "apply system wide" setting. Setting a proxy here: - does not modify /etc/environment - does not set root's http_proxy, https_proxy, ftp_proxy environment variables This means that apt and Software Updates do not receive the proxy settings, and package checks/updates/installs fail. workaround: sudo http_proxy='http://[username]:[password]@[webproxy]:[port]' apt update etc To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1730672/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
