Hi Chris, Thanks very much for your report :)
Two issues then : [packaging] http proxies env. var should be exposed when using systemd/SystV. [upstream] the http client should actually use them ^^ The http client bug was forwarded upstream, the issue is identified/nearly fixed. Python requests is actually not honoring HTTP_PROXY because of the use of the lower level API in the http client which in turn is not propagating environment variables… I'll try to fix this as soon as I can (I'm also the upstream developer). Thanks again.
