Unlike 16.x, there is no "apply system wide" setting. Setting a proxy here: - does not modify /etc/environment - does not set root's http_proxy, https_proxy, ftp_proxy environment variables This means that apt and Software Updates do not receive the proxy settings, and package checks/updates/installs fail. workaround: sudo http_proxy='http://[username]:[password]@[webproxy]:[port]' apt update etc To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1730672/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
