Someone over in this bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wget/+bug/232469) found the problem. The environment variable no_proxy has a trailing comma which it should not. Once you remove that, downloads through the proxy started working.

I am also having issues with wget behind a proxy. Trying to download any address that requires proxy authorization fails with the following message: "failed: Connection timed out." Also it seems to be trying to connect using port 80. Shouldn't it be using the port specified in the proxy setting?

The fact that "using 'sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter' even after setting the proxy in /etc/wgetrc was still not working" may be related with https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sudo/+bug/556293 -- Wget does not work with proxy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554068 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 554068] Re: Wget does not work with proxy
I confirm this bug. In my case I wanted to install b43-fwcutter (proprietary driver for a wireless card) using a network behind a proxy. A. Normal procedure (FAIL) 1) Set proxy in System->Preferences->Network Proxy and set it to be system-wide 2) Install driver through System->Administration->Hardware Drivers, or 3) Install b43-fwcutter through synaptic DIDN'T WORK because it requires a wget command that was not using the proxy B. Download and install (FAIL) 1) Download http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/b/b43-fwcutter/b43-fwcutter_012-1build1_i386.deb via browser 2) Double-click to install DIDN'T WORK because it also requires the wget command to get the firmware C. Download both b43-fwcutter and firmware and then install (FAIL) DIDN'T WORK because the installer didn't care if the firmware is on same folder and keep trying to download it D. Using environment variable http_proxy (FAIL) 1) Set proxy in environment variable http_proxy 2) Install with 'sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter' DIDN'T WORK and give an error similar to "Connecting to voxel.dl.sourceforge.net|208.122.31.13|:80... failed: Connection refused." E. Set proxy in /etc/wgetrc (ONLY WAY TO INSTALL IT) 1) uncomment lines with http_proxy and ftp_proxy and set the proxy 2) sudo sh 3) apt-get install b43-fwcutter Strangely using 'sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter' even after setting the proxy in /etc/wgetrc was still not working. However, as root (using sudo sh) it finally installs it SOLUTION: In my opinion there must a way that, somehow, forces wget to use the proxy set in System->Preferences->Network Proxy -- Wget does not work with proxy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554068 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
