Bump #29. Experiencing the same problem in 12.10. I followed http://askubuntu.com/a/110876/133566 as a workaround.
I agree with #5. "Apply System Wide" button is misleading. Until proxy functionality is handled at the correct layer, this button should say something else or add a text box with more explanation. Would it be possible to give developers a way to automatically test with a simulated proxy? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/545134 Title: Ubuntu Software Centre can not install packages behind authenticated http proxies when the user does not click on "apply systemwide" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/empathy/+bug/545134/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
