No. Sorry for not being so clear. When I say `$ env` (i.e. as normal user) it doesn't show http_proxy. As if /etc/environment is not available to normal user. I wonder why? (I checked file permissions they are 0644) When I say `# env` (i.e. as root user) I can see `http_proxy`, `https_proxy` and `ftp_proxy` as if /etc/environment is available to root only. Then when I say `$ sudo env` again I couldn't see any of the `http_proxy`, `https_proxy` or `ftp_proxy` > > If so, now, we know for sure that the problem is in sudo.
