There are system environment variables that can be set that ExperimentHub/AnnotationHub will grab automatically from the environment.
If a computer has the system environment variable EXPERIMENT_HUB_PROXY (ANNOTATION_HUB_PROXY) the hubs recognize these and set them automatically rather than having to call the constructor with the proxy. The User that is operating through a proxy should set these values on their machine.

The issue appears when trying to access the ExperimentHub and dealing with a proxy. A similar error was previously reported by Tim Triche and lead to an interesting discussion with the Bioconductor group: https://support.bioconductor.org/p/111958/ However, in this case the problem appears during the .onLoad instead of during the .onAttach. I was not able to reproduce the problem locally. Thus, I believe this is a problem that I should solve for future users. Do you have any advice on how to solve this problem from the BiocManager::install or from the FlowSorted.CordBloodCombined.450k:::.onLoad? Your advice will be really appreciated.
