Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: synaptic
Hello,
I live in a campus with an authenticated proxy and an internal ubuntu
repository mirror, basically I would like to use the internal ubuntu
repository, and use the proxy for any third party repository, because
the proxy forbids the access to the LAN servers through it.
using /etc/apt/apt.conf and adding something like this :
Acquire {
http {
Proxy "http://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:port/";
};
ftp {
Proxy "http://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:port/";
Proxy::lan.host "DIRECT";
};
};
makes apt-get works perfectly, however I don't get the same result with
synaptic.
Also I think synaptic should lose its proxy setting panel (because it
makes it more complex to configure for beginners) since it picks up the
config from the env variable which is set by GNOME (and gksu)
thank you
