/etc/apt/apt.conf not being updated is a bug in ubuntu-system-service, so please file a new one for that product.
About authenticated proxy, there is no UI indeed, and it's too late in the cycle to add it, so it will have to wait until 3.3, but for the time being people can use http://user:password@host:port URLs. It's filed upstream as https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=646354 About exclusion list, ditto, no UI till 3.3, but it is possible to set the list in GSettings, under /system/proxy/ignored-hosts ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #646354 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=646354 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/795519 Title: Add back system-wide network proxy settings Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “gnome-control-center” source package in Oneiric: In Progress Bug description: Binary package hint: gnome-control-center Using Oneiric alpha1 and gnome-control-center 1:3.0.2-1ubuntu4.
