Why ? /etc/cron.weekly/popularity-contest is also a conffile. If we go that route maybe we want to add if [ -n "$HTTP_PROXY" ]; then export http_proxy="$HTTP_PROXY"; fi in /etc/cron.weekly/popularity-contest to make the syntax in /etc/popularity-contest.conf more uniform. On the other hand do you know systems that use http_proxy ? How they do that.
