I'm using the current stock vanilla "wget" of Ubuntu "Lucid" with no
"~/.wgetrc" and no "/etc/wgetrc" and proxy support still does not work:

nom...@sion:~$ cat ~/.wgetrc
cat: /home/nomike/.wgetrc: No such file or directory
nom...@sion:~$ cat /etc/wgetrc
cat: /etc/wgetrc: No such file or directory
nom...@sion:~$ export http_proxy="http://proxy-sd.s-mxs.net:8080";
nom...@sion:~$ export ftp_proxy="http://proxy-sd.s-mxs.net:8080";
nom...@sion:~$ echo $http_proxy
http://proxy-sd.s-mxs.net:8080
nom...@sion:~$ echo $ftp_proxy
http://proxy-sd.s-mxs.net:8080
nom...@sion:~$ wget http://www.google.com/
--2010-07-06 19:44:14--  http://www.google.com/
Auflösen des Hostnamen »www.google.com«.... fehlgeschlagen: Name or service not 
known.
wget: kann die Host-Adresse »»www.google.com«« nicht auflösen


However lynx is honoring the "*_proxy" environment variables.

** Changed in: wget (Ubuntu)
       Status: Invalid => New

wget doesn't accept http_proxy environment variable
