Found some dupes of this... most important thing to know about this bug is that it's not just synaptic, it's every network application that depends on the environment variables $http_proxy, $ftp_proxy, $no_proxy, etc.
The bug title is a bit misleading and should be changed to: "system-wide proxy should not require relogin to take affect" ... or something similar if anyone can think of shorter, more eloquent wording. -- system-wide proxy does not apply to synaptic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290313 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
