Public bug reported: I just typed under "dconf-editor", System → Proxy → ignore-hosts, the following content:
['localhost', '127.0.0.0/8', '::1', '192.168.0.1', '2000::/3', 'fc00::/8'] But, Google Chrome (and apt-get update / upgrade) is just ignoring this settings. Also, Firefox doesn't honor the `ingore-hosts` settings, even configuring it to "Use system proxy settings". For example, my Proxy Server (Ubuntu with Squid3) is in dual-stacked mode BUT, I do NOT want to access IPv6 web sites through the Proxy, that's why I'm trying to ignore the entire IPv6 Internet with the entry 2000::/3 above, but, it does not work as expected. BTW, I don't need the proxy to access Hyperboria sites, which resides under fc00::/8 (local / private subnet) but, it doesn't work either... Why I'm doing this? Because my environment is already a IPv6-Only Network and, to access the old internet infrastructure (IPv4-Only), I need to go through the dual- stacked proxy. But I need the proxy only when a web site doesn't have IPv6... How can I know that it doesn't work?! It is simple, just access a web site that shows a IPv6 address on it, for example, http://www.sixxs.net or http://ipv6.whatismyv6.com, then, I'm still seeing the IPv6 address of the Proxy Server, so, "ignore-hosts entry '2000::/3'" doesn't seem to be working. Plus, when I'm trying to access a Hyperboria website, Squid returns an error that it can not reach `fc00::/8` network (Squid ERROR: (101) Network is unreachable) ...of course it can't, the cjdns router is running right on my Ubuntu Desktop, so, no need to go through proxy when browsing Hyperboria fc00::/8 but, Ubuntu isn't honoring ignore-hosts under proxy settings. Please guys, Linux is a O.S. built for networks! How can "Ubuntu Proxy Setup" be so simplistic?! And it doesn't even work! I already tried askubuntu.com but, no answer there, look: http://askubuntu.com/questions/435163/how-to-make-ubuntu-honor-ignore- hosts-proxy-settings-for-ipv6 I really appreciate any help! This is a serious problem. Thanks!
