[Bug 494373] Re: gnome-network-properties sets $http_proxy incorrectly
it is still present in 11.04 production. since i am visiting several customers, i need to save their proxy information. Although i saved the authentication credentials, it does not do any good and i t makes me to ask customer to enter the username/password every time, for each different browser, mail client, synaptic like tools which is not a good way. gnome-network-propeties takes all the required parameters, host, port, username, password but sets proxy only as host:port. It should be a one line of code to fix just by adding username:password@host:port. I hope it will be patched as soon as possible. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/494373 Title: gnome-network-properties sets $http_proxy incorrectly -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I'm reopening this report because I can reproduce on Lucid and it's clearly broken. username/password are not always exported in *_proxy. Env variable are created in caps and when the proxy is remove only the *_PROXY are removed from env.

@Benoit: bug 544033 is different. It's about apt.conf not $http_proxy. It's not a duplicate so we'll treat it there. @Jayson: The original report do not talk about sudo -i so it's a new issue.

[Bug 494373] Re: gnome-network-properties sets $http_proxy incorrectly
The bug seems fixed in Lucid. I would just remark on the screen encoding the proxy. If I chose to manually configure the proxy and I begin with http:// encoding, the following letter removes the http:// (ok), but puts the cursor at the start line. Before the last letter that I encoded. It would be fairer to put the cursor at the end of encoding for the strikes continue without error. -- gnome-network-properties sets $http_proxy incorrectly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/494373 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 494373] Re: gnome-network-properties sets $http_proxy incorrectly
I had a look at the code and it seems that the problem is located here: 50_ubuntu_systemwide_prefs.patch:29 that is to say: + /* FIXME: add proxy auth support when a secure store for the proxy + password is available */ + proxy_str = g_strdup_printf(%s://%s:%i/, proxy_type, host, port); + g_print(p: %s\n, proxy_str); So, here the string does not include auth information (it is explained in the FIXME). Regarding gnome-terminal, if the http_proxy environment variable is already defined then it does not attempt to retrieve the proxy information from gconf and define http_proxy variable. See src/terminal-screen.c:1422 /* Do we already have a proxy setting? */ if (g_hash_table_lookup (env_table, http_proxy) != NULL) use_proxy = FALSE; If I comment these two lines, then my http_proxy variable is defined properly in gnome-terminal (with auth information). Basically, there are two solutions: 1) The ideal solution would be to add auth support to 50_ubuntu_systemwide_prefs.patch. I don't know if it is possible because apparently a secure store is missing 2) In 50_ubuntu_systemwide_prefs.patch do not attempt to define the http_proxy variable whenever authentication is enabled. At least, applications such as gnome-terminal will define the http_proxy variable correctly (provided that it is not already defined). For other applications, the proxy string without auth information would not work anyway when authentication is required. -- gnome-network-properties sets $http_proxy incorrectly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/494373 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
