I have the same problem. For all users of the computer, a proxy is indicated in the http_proxy environnement variable. They enter a pair of id/pwd, in a pop-up authentication window, then they want to view some web page with Firefox. http_proxy=http://ip_proxy:port/
For apt-get, I put in the /etc/apt/apt.conf file a line as : Acquire::http::Proxy "http://an_id:a_...@ip_proxy:port/";; (with rights 640, root as owner, admin as group ; also, other users can't see the content of this file). Cause this bug, this config don't works. -- apt-get http_proxy overwrites Acquire::http::Proxy settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/365570 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
