The problem is that Synaptic caches the proxy settings in its config file, and the "Apply system wide" option doesn't know how to replace that (naturally).
Take a look in /root/.synaptic/synaptic.conf - I wager you will see the old proxy settings. Either correct them there, or delete them so that the global settings are used. I'd suggest this is a bug in synaptic - it shouldn't cache proxy settings that are obtained from the systemwide config. -- Doesn't honor gnome proxy settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/24250 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
