Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree
Package: flashplugin-nonfree 10.0.12.36ubuntu1
hi,
when installing flashplugin-nonfree on intrepid, the install-process
ignores the proxy-settings of both /etc/apt/apt.conf and any .wgetrc. It
looks like the installer uses an old wget-version, which ignores the
proxy-settings. If the installation is done by synaptic, no error is
reported on installation.
To test this behavior try:
- connect to a network where no direct internet access is possible but trough a
http-proxy
- set proxy settings in /etc/apt/sources.list and /home/<YourUser>/.wgetrc and
/root/.wgetrc
- sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
The only way I found to enable the flashplugin is to re-install it when
connected to the internet without using a proxy.
Thanks,
Markus
