Actually, I'm sorry, it might not be gnome-terminal that has the offending code anymore -- this bug seems to affect apps launched from the panel, too.
In particular, update-manager is now broken. (I was *wondering* why it hadn't popped up since I upgraded...) The error message is uninformative, but I confirmed that it is the same problem by (1) verifying via /proc/$(pidof update-manager)/environ that update-manager had the bad http_proxy variable set, (2) turning off the proxy in Network Proxy Preferences, (3) restarting update-manager (4) confirming that the http_proxy environment variable was gone and that (5) update- manager now worked. I think that may make this what Debian would call a "critical" bug. -- Regression: "Automatic proxy configuration" + gnome-terminal now breaks apt-get, curl, wget... https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/433827 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
