The option is called: Acquire::http::Proxy, so your setting should be Acquire::http::Proxy "username:[email protected]:80";
Host-specific settings would be Acquire::http::Proxy::<host> there <host> is the address of the sources.list entry (e.g. if you have to use a proxy only for certain parts of the web). If you want to use a "special" character in username or password you have to encode it, so try to use "%40" instead of "@". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1004541 Title: apt-get update did not run even after updating apt.conf file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1004541/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
