Title: Acquire::http::ProxyAutoDetect is executed multiple times for each host Status in APT: New Status in apt package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: For each host that is involved in an update/ installation, APT executes the command set in Acquire::http::ProxyAutoDetect. On a default installation, sudo apt-get update executed the command twice because archive.ubuntu.com and security.ubuntu.com are both mentioned in /etc/apt/sources.conf. As PPAs are commonly used, this increases to three. With a lot of third-party repository sources, this number rises a lot. If the proxy detection command is slow, there might be a delay during the source lists updates and package installations. Affected versions: 0.8.13.2ubuntu4.1 (Ubuntu Natty) 0.7.25.3ubuntu9.5 (Ubuntu Lucid) 0.8.15.2 (Debian unstable) Steps to reproduce: 1. Create /etc/apt/print-message containing: #!/bin/sh echo CALLED >&2 2. Create /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/30proxy-test containing: Acquire::http::ProxyAutoDetect "/etc/apt/print-message"; 3. Run sudo apt-get update or install a PPA package which depends on a package from the official repos which is not installed yet 4. Clean up by removing /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/30proxy-test and /etc/apt/print-message What I expected to happen: CALLED should be printed once What happened instead: CALLED is printed a few times for each involved host.
