I am trying to tune apt-get to use my proxy (squid) when downloading files via ftp, but it doesn't connect anymore when I write this file: /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20proxy with this content: -------------------------- Acquire { ftp { Proxy "ftp://proxy:3128/"; }; }; --------------------------
Or: Proxy "http://proxy:3128/"; All I get is this: hamster:~#apt-get install wine Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done The following extra packages will be installed: libcupsys2 libwine wine-utils 4 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 864 not upgraded. Need to get 5405kB of archives.
