Title:
apt-key and add-apt-repository don't honor Acquire::http::Proxy
Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
When setting the proxy server globally on the system for the APT
package manager, add-apt-repository ignores the setting. This issue is
present on all versions of Debian that I have tested.
# cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/80proxy
Acquire::http::proxy "http://w.x.y.z:nnnn/";;
# apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 5A9A06AEF9CB8DB0

This has serious repercussions. Unattended installs such as juju,
maas, etc are all affected for anyone who is working behind a proxy.
This is the case for most enterprise environments where such maas and
juju setups will be tested out, and as such has great repercussions
for Canonical as a viable supplier of OpenStack environments: if your
product fails to install, you're not going to get the business.
Considering that:
* The setting to use already exists in /etc/apt/apt.conf and that all other
tools use this correctly
* The serious impact of this issue for downstream projects and Debian usage
in the enterprise
* The long time this issue has been standing and has affected people
I suggest that this either
1) be fixed, or
2) the apt-key and add-apt-repository programs are renamed so that it is made
clear they are not part of the APT suite of programs and therefor cannot be
trusted to behave as if they were part of APT.
