reportbug support http_proxy (and if not, it's a bug) > That's why I've > reported #590214. Would you like a similar (actually, blocker) feature > request on debbugs? please do so (I didn't myself after your report due to lack of time): there's very little I can do on reportbug if not properly supported by debbugs (I won't develop a translation layer HTTP-mail on a third host to support it or so). Maybe another debbugs SOAP method we can call would be nice (or some other XML-RPC call).
