Package: reportbug Version: 6.6.6 Severity: wishlist reportbug supports an HTTP proxy if set in the environment; however, when it subsequently tries to submit the report, it tries to connect directly to the specified SMTP server, and does not seem to support using a proxy for that connection.
Please consider adding support for using a SOCKS proxy to connect to reportbug.debian.org, and obtaining that proxy from the environment (via the all_proxy environment variable, and respecting no_proxy). -- Package-specific info: ** Environment settings: EDITOR="/home/josh/.local/bin/vim-wrapper" DEBEMAIL="j...@joshtriplett.org" EMAIL="j...@joshtriplett.org" DEBFULLNAME="Josh Triplett" NAME="Josh Triplett" INTERFACE="text" ** /home/josh/.reportbugrc: reportbug_version "3.21.2" mode expert ui text no-cc header "X-Debbugs-CC: j...@joshtriplett.org" smtphost reportbug.debian.org:587 header "X-Debbugs-No-Ack: ack!" -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.4.0-rc8+ (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages reportbug depends on: ii apt 1.1.10 ii python-reportbug 6.6.6 pn python:any <none> reportbug recommends no packages.
