I also continue to see this issue in 12.04. Like @ender46 I have my
proxy set up in Network Settings, apt.conf and /etc/wgetrc and also as
an environment variable for root. Despite this, when flashplugin-
installer and ttf-mscorefonts-installer try to download files the
downloads time out.

I don't think this issue is fixed in 12.04 beta.
I have set my proxy settings in Network Settings, in ~/.bashrc, in
/etc/apt.conf and in /etc/wgetrc (as I used to do in 10.04 and 10.10).
Web browsers work, wget works and updates (both graphical and via apt-
get) work, except for the
Currently in Precise, the development release of Ubuntu that will become

Subsequently, update-manger, apt, synaptic and wget will all use the
same settings. So

Thank you for taking the time to report this issue in the One Hundred Paper
Cuts project. However, I am rejecting this as a paper cut because it is not a
simple usability issue in default or featured applications, but instead a
larger, complex problem.
Don't worry, I'm ONLY setting this as
As noted in other comments setting the 'system wide proxy' did not work
for me, even though I can see the env vars set correctly. The following

Indeed, this is the case. I'm in a school, and I have spent probably a
total of 1000 hours trying to configure my Ubuntu (all the way back to
6.04) for updates -- all to no avail. I've
After upgrading to ubuntu10.10,I can not install packages in the
terminal using the command apt -get install packagenames with the
environment variable http_proxy set properly in the terminal.I have to
set the proxy in the apt.conf file in the /etc/apt directory or use the

after setting global proxy settings in network proxy, also edit
/etc/wgetrc and add a line http_proxy =
http://username:passw...@host:port
edit the file as root obviously. everything then seems to work :)

Absolutely NOTHING works for me trying to get updates. $http_proxy
output is http_proxy=http://myusername:mypassw...@proxy.domain.com:800/
-- because the proxy port is 800. I've tried 5865, 8080, and others
that I've seen posted in fixes that don't work for me.
I am absolutely at my wits' end

The results of $http_proxy does not include the authentication
credentials if it is set system wide on Karmic Alpha 5:
http_proxy=http://proxy.domain.com:8080/
For $http_proxy to work, I use the following:
Thanks for your bugreport.
What proxy settings do you have? Is this a proxy that requires authentication?
The bug should be fixed already in jaunty (unless authentication is used). What
happens if you open a gnome-termianl and type:
$ echo $http_proxy ?

Confirmed on Karmic - Alpha 5.
A fix needs to be contributed to utilise the Network Proxy Preferences
tool to ensure that all package management applications honour the
settings defined.
