Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-applets
What happened: I have a manual proxy configured in System->Preferences->Network Proxy. The weather applet never updates for me. I suspect that this is because it is not using the proxy settings. What I expected to happen: The weather applet should update, using the manual proxy settings. This seems similar to #153301, but in my case the weather applet ignores my manual proxy configuration rather than the automatic proxy configuration in that bug. $ lsb_release -rd; apt-cache policy gnome-applets Description: Ubuntu 8.10 Release: 8.10 gnome-applets: Installed: 2.24.1-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 2.24.1-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 2.24.1-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://ftp.heanet.ie intrepid/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ** Affects: gnome-applets (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- weather applet does not update (ignoring proxy settings?) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/435172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-applets in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
