Indeed, the uploaded version doesn't include my change. The uploaded
version has the following changelog:
gnome-control-center (1:3.4.2-0ubuntu0.9) precise; urgency=low
* debian/UbuntuLogo.png: logo was saying 12.04.1 LTS, go back to just
use "12.04 LTS" to avoid having to keep updating it (lp: #1116801)

Whereas my patch had the following changelog:
gnome-control-center (1:3.4.2-0ubuntu0.9) precise; urgency=low
* Added debian/patches/remove-manual-proxy-in-auto.patch to also remove
the manual proxy setting when in AUTO mode. (LP: #1100587)

I guess the other change was already in the pipeline, but the
corresponding fix has not gone in.

Title:
gnome-control-center does not remove system-wide proxy settings from
/etc/environment when switch from manual to automatic mode.
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in “gnome-control-center” source package in Precise:
Fix Committed
Status in “gnome-control-center” source package in Quantal:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
* Impact: the environment proxy settings might end up being
incorrectly set
* Test Case:
Go into system settings => network => Network Proxy => Method => Manual
Set a proxy (I chose 'goats' for the http bit, and 8080 as the port.
Click on 'apply system wide'.
Note that /etc/environment contains 'http_proxy="http://goats:8080";'
Then go into system settings => network => Network Proxy => Method =>
Automatic
Set my automatic proxy config URL to my companies wpad.dat.
Click on 'apply system wide'
Note that /etc/environment still contains 'http_proxy="http://goats:8080";.
This ends up hosing specific applications that read the proxy from the
environment, instead of from wherever GNOME stores this data.
* Regression potential: limited, check that the proxy settings are
correctly set and used in both manual and automatic modes
