Package: cupt Version: 1.5.8 Severity: normal excerpt from cupt_vs_apt(5):
to explicitly disable proxy, set 'acquire::<protocol>::[<host::]proxy' to "", not to "DIRECT" Neglecting the fact this difference of configuration syntax is annoying enough when you want to try cupt a bit without fully abandoning APT, I just could not get it work. I tried each of the following stanzas, without success: acquire::http::bugs.debian.org::proxy ""; acquire::http::<bugs.debian.org::proxy ""; acquire::http::proxy::bugs.debian.org ""; acquire::http::proxy::bugs.debian.org ""; All these attempts trigger the following error messages: E: bad config in file '/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/11-proxy' W: skipped configuration file '/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/11-proxy' What is the correct way to do so? BTW, what is the rationale of the fact that cupt ignores the whole config file when it does not like a single line of it? This behavior forces me to sort APT settings in apt.conf.d/ files by cupt-compliance, rather than by topic (e.g. I'll have to split my `11-proxy' file into `11-proxy-apt' and `11-proxy-cupt', which I find kind of ugly).
