Package: sudo Version: 1.7.4p6-1 Severity: important sudo clears the environment by default. In particular, this removes any proxy settings from the environment. Thus, out of the box, the user can't configure a proxy the normal way (such as by using the desktop environment's network proxy settings) and have it work for installing packages.
Assuming that the default setting of env_reset won't change, please consider adding the following environment variables to env_keep in the default sudoers file: http_proxy https_proxy ftp_proxy all_proxy no_proxy Thanks, Josh Triplett -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
