Nathaniel thanks again for your input, and sorry for bothering you with
this.
I located the component that inserts that "pac+": it's libsoup-gnome2.4-1.
1) I ran `apt-get source libsoup-gnome2.4-1`
2) I modified "pac+" to "pac+debug" in libsoup/soup-proxy-resolver-gnome.c:
} else if (proxy_mode == SOUP_PROXY_RESOLVER_GNOME_MODE_AUTO) {
char *autoconfig_url;
autoconfig_url = gconf_client_get_string (
gconf_client, SOUP_GCONF_PROXY_AUTOCONFIG_URL, NULL);
if (autoconfig_url && !strncmp (autoconfig_url, "http", 4))
http_proxy = g_strconcat ("pac+debug-", autoconfig_url,
NULL);
3) I compiled and installed this modified libsoup, and rebooted my PC.
4) echo $http_proxy now showed: pac+debug-http://server
So this is where the "pac+" that we see originates.
Again, I don't know if libsoup is correct in adding that "pac+" there or
not. I'm just proposing that we notify the libsoup developers about this
bug, so that we have their opinion on the subject.
