Public bug reported: Network proxy settings in gnome-control-center removes Acquire::*::proxy::HOST "DIRECT" value when set proxy method "None".
NOTE: Acquire::*::proxy::HOST "DIRECT" works as no_proxy for APT. How to reproduce: 1. open network settings in gnome-control-center 2. set proxy like the example below: * method - manual * HTTP Proxy - example.com:8080 * HTTPS Proxy - example.com:8090 3. press "Apply system wide" - confirm proxy settings are written in /etc/apt/apt.conf 4. add the line below into /etc/apt/apt.conf manually - Acquire::http::proxy::server1.local "DIRECT"; 5. add the line below into /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/90no-proxy.conf - Acquire::http::proxy::server2.local "DIRECT"; 6. turn off proxy by set back the Method to "None" and press "Apply system wide" again. Expected to happen: 7. the three lines below are removed from /etc/apt/apt.conf - Acquire::http::proxy "http://example.com:8080/";; - Acquire::https::proxy "http://example.com:8080/";; - Acquire::ftp::proxy "http://example.com:8080/";; but leave the lines below in /etc/apt/apt.conf and /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/90no-proxy.conf as is to be useful for the next time. - Acquire::http::proxy::server1.local "DIRECT"; - Acquire::http::proxy::server2.local "DIRECT"; What happened instead: 7. the three lines are removed and also "DIRECT" lines are removed. NOTE: "Apply system wide" for /etc/environment leave no_proxy value as is.
