[These settings are handled by apt] If you are using sudo to run apt-get then the problem is that sudo only passed http_proxy, and not no_proxy. This was considered a security issue and sudo has since been changed to not pass any proxy settings. See #432631 for details. You should instead make your proxy settings in /etc/apt/apt.conf When not using sudo and testing with 0.8.10.3 both of these variables are respected. > the proxy environment don't recognize , proxy variable > like "HTTP_PROXY" ect... Please use "http_proxy" which is more commonly supported, rather than "HTTP_PROXY". ** Changed in: aptitude (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/251811 Title: Aptitude seems to ignore environment variable $no_proxy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aptitude/+bug/251811/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
