I have added this with sudo visudo, in order to avoid future problems: Defaults env_keep="http_proxy" Defaults env_keep="https_proxy" Defaults env_keep="all_proxy" Defaults env_keep="ftp_proxy" Defaults env_keep="no_proxy" Defaults env_keep="socks_proxy" It would be interesting that these entries could be added by default in a fresh Ubuntu installation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516032 Title: add-apt-repository doesn't work behind a proxy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/516032/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
