I'm not sure that this is a problem in emdebian-tools - it looks more
like a problem of an incomplete setup for apt itself.

Have you set the proxy in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ ?

"In general the sample configuration file in
/usr/share/doc/apt/examples/apt.conf
/usr/share/doc/apt/examples/configure-index.gz is a good guide
for how it should look."
http://manpages.debian.net/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=apt.conf


  // HTTP method configuration
  http 
  {
    Proxy "http://127.0.0.1:3128";;
    Proxy::http.us.debian.org "DIRECT";  // Specific per-host setting
    Timeout "120";
    Pipeline-Depth "5";

Sorry, that's pointless. The only program that does any actual
downloading in this sequence is apt.

Those are apt errors.

apt-cross needs to specify a lot of options to apt, overriding numerous
aspects of apt. Existing configuration for apt connections should still
be retained.

If this bug still occurs after setting the proxy in the apt
configuration, please re-assign to apt-cross. If the correct apt
configuration allows apt to download the package lists, please close
this bug.

Irrespective of whether apt itself works with the incomplete
configuration, this is still not a bug in emdebian-tools because of
the extra requirements of getting apt to understand cross-building
issues.

Thanks.
