Hi Scott,
thanks for your bug report with patch. If you want to be even more awesome
than you already are, you could include debian/changelog entries in your
patches too :-)
Um ... OK. I will have to learn how to do that. I will add to my
"Learn About ..." list :-)

Attached patch causes piuparts to add appropriate line to apt.conf in

it also seems to contain unwanted noise about force-confdef :/
I didn't see that in my (limited) testing. I will re-test (after mod
described below) and look specifically for anything about confdef. In
meantime, do you recall precisely what it reports ?
It PROBABLY should also read current apt config and duplicate any
Acquire::http::proxy value from there. However, there are at least three
issues with that:
I think the ability to specify the proxy like this is well sufficient. If a
user wants to configure apt further, she can always do this via a custom
script :-)
I already found 'apt-config' (which addresses all three of my
"issues"). I have it on my list to execute it and pull any
Acquire::Proxy value from there if HTTP_PROXY is not in os.environ. So
I'll send revised patch in next 3-4 days.
cheers,
Holger
