Thanks for your detailed test and the added information. I didn't
managed to test/debug the problem yet, sorry for this.
It seems like there is a bug in gksu somehow because gksu should export
the current gconf proxy information to the applications started via
gksu. So if synaptic is started from the system menu, the http_proxy
information should be set in the environment of synaptic. I don't know
(currently) why this dosn't work for you.
Cheers,
Michael
