Public bug reported: I have a moderately complicated (66 line) PAC file, configured in the Network Settings applet using the automatic method with a HTTP URL. I've seen the same/similar behaviour on previous versions of Ubuntu.
This doesn't set the http_proxy environment variable, so I am unable to access the internet as all applications try to connect directly. I'm attaching an obfuscated version of the PAC file, and I'm keen to help debug this issue. I've worked around the problem to gain internet access by setting the proxy manually, but this doesn't set up the exceptions specified by the PAC.
