Hmm. I'm just starting to have a poke at it. Certainly this issue would be a stopper for me too. Hence my interest.
The only thing I can find on it is.... http://bazaar-vcs.org/ConfiguringBzr Environment variables * http_proxy: URL of the HTTP proxy to use. I guess they are just dropping down to use the python libraries, same as update-manager. So I would expect... export http_proxy=http://proxyhost.example.com:3128 bzr dosomethingwith http://whatever/this/that to work. Usually export no_proxy=mymachine.tait.co.nz also has value. Hmm. Ah yes... bzr help urlspec URL Identifiers Supported URL prefixes: aftp:// Access using active FTP. bzr:// Fast access using the Bazaar smart server. bzr+ssh:// Fast access using the Bazaar smart server over SSH. file:// Access using the standard filesystem (default) ftp:// Access using passive FTP. http:// Read-only access of branches exported on the web. https:// Read-only access of branches exported on the web using SSL. sftp:// Access using SFTP (most SSH servers provide SFTP). I think you can only use http for read-only accesss. Perhaps you will have to convince them to give outgoing ssh access through the firewall. Keep me posted if you work out what's happening.

Hurro, anyone on the list using bzr? I've just set it up to do some work on a project that is hosted on launchpad.net and when I issue the 'bar branch' command for the trunk of the project it does not honour http_proxy or HTTP_PROXY environment variables... I'd like it to go out through the proxy with everything else as for part of the project I'll be working on a customers LAN that has strict egress filtering in place. Cheers, Me.
