This seems to be a generic Gnome feature, if an application doesn't understand automatic proxy it will use the manual http proxy settings instead. The Gconf configuration backs this up: the preferred proxy settings are in ~/.gconf/system/proxy and the manual http setting is in ~/.gconf/system/http_proxy. -- weather applet won't use automatic-proxy-configuration https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/153301 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
