I tried something close to the following:
Acquire::http::Proxy "http://123.456.7.8.sg:8080";;
The output was command not found.
I want to try and solve this problem by editing apt.conf with the following
lines:
Acquire {
Retries "0";
HTTP {
Proxy "http://123.456.7.8:8080";;
};
};
I have opened up apt.conf, but it is too complicated for me. I don't know
what to overwrite in the .conf file. Here belo is what I can see in the
apt.conf. What should I change it to?
// $Id: apt.conf,v 1.43 1999/12/06 02:19:38 jgg Exp $

APT
{
// Options for apt-get
Get
{
Download-Only "false";
};
};
// Options for the downloading routines
Acquire
{
Retries "0";
};
// Things that effect the APT dselect method
DSelect
{
Clean "auto"; // always|auto|prompt|never
};
DPkg
{
// Probably don't want to use force-downgrade..
Options {"--force-overwrite";}
}
