Just did a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10 64bit and was unable to connect using the Ubuntu Software Centre. I also had connectivity issues running apt-get update.
Fixed by creating a file at /etc/apt/apt.conf containing the proxy IP: Acquire::http::Proxy "http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:port/";; -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/545134 Title: Ubuntu Software Centre ignores system and apt Proxy settings -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
