Ok, correction. This bug appears to be about overriding the Gnome Proxy settings in Synaptic. That, indeed, does now work; but it appears to be needed because Gnome proxy (System > Preferences > Network Proxy) doesn't pass authentication information - and this is still broken. Sure, I understand that overriding Gnome proxy in Synaptic package manager is useful, but why wasn't Gnome proxy authentication passing fixed first?
Does any application work with the Gnome Network Proxy authentication setting? Sound Juicer 2.22.0 isn't working with it, Rhythmbox 0.11.5 isn't either http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=537571 (Banshee using proxy, but doesn't get/use the authentication info) -- Synaptic proxy authentication integration https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/105415 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
