Public bug reported:
1. I go to Dash | Network | Network proxy where I set up my proxy.
2. Go to a terminal and say wget www.google.com, this works.
3. type sudo apt-get update
4. See that apt-get update does not use the proxy setting that wget uses.
5. edit /etc/apt/apt.conf:
Acquire::http::proxy "http://localhost:3128/";;
Acquire::ftp::proxy "http://localhost:3128/";;
Acquire::https::proxy "https://localhost:3128/";;
6. Try apt-get update again
7. It Works!
Network proxy thould update the apt.conf file as well.
This is actually a network settings bug, but it manifests in apt-get.
