Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

In gnome-network-properties, I select:
- manual proxy configuration
  * check the box: use the same proxy for all protocols
  * Type the HTTP proxy address: proxy.utbm.fr
  * Type the HTTP proxy port: 3128

Then, since my proxy requires authentication, I hit "Details" button and I:
 * Check "Use Authentication"
 * Provide my username and password

Then I press "Close" to exit Details dialog and gnome-network-properties dialog 
and I open a new terminal:
> echo $http_proxy
http://proxy.utbm.fr:3128

Although it should be:
http://username:[email protected]:3128

Note that this worked just fine in previous Ubuntu releases (v9.04 for
example) and it is broken since Ubuntu v9.10.
