Apt (and therefore aptitude) takes it proxy settings from apt.conf or environment. It is not possible to externally update aptitudes environment once it is running, so that can not be fixed. Changes in apt.conf could be found, but that is not usually how unix programs operate and so is unexpected and perhaps broken.
There will be no updating of settings from external sources while the program is running. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296982 Title: cli aptitude proxy settings don't update until terminal is restarted To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aptitude/+bug/296982/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
