Title:
geoclue-ubuntu-geoip doesn't support proxies
Status in Ubuntu GeoIP Provider:
Fix Committed
Status in “ubuntu-geoip” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “ubuntu-geoip” source package in Precise:
Fix Released
Bug description:
geoclue-ubuntu-geoip doesn't seem to support proxy settings, even when
they're set in /etc/environment or the System Settings → Network
section.
This would be useful for corporate networks where outgoing HTTP is
blocked, except for when allowed via a proxy.
[Impact]
System components should respect system proxy settings.
[Test Case]
With non-patched packages, run: kill -9 the geoclue-master and
ubuntu-geoip-provider processes while running tcpdump on ports 80 and the port
of one's HTTP proxy server.
One will see the connections go straight to port 80 on the IPs above
rather than via the proxy.
[Regression Potential]
None.
