Public bug reported: Binary package hint: apt
Installed ubuntu alpha 3 in vmware today, just like I have done with gutsy final. I have set my proxy in both exactly the same way via the "Network Proxy" in the Preferences menu. In gutsy I can update both via command line (apt-get update) and the GUI. In hardy alpha 3, both do not work. I did not test alpha 2 so I can not say anything there. I had the same thing in Kubuntu alpha 3 where I set my proxy via apt.conf (Acquire::http::Proxy "....") and also via export http_proxy="..." When I wait a little longer I get a connection time out. Also. Internet in konqueror worked and also in Firefox. wget www.yahoo.com in the command line gives me a package via the proxy connection acknowledged as being ok. When I do ping www.yahoo.com, no packages come through while I can ping my proxy correctly. I am slightly confused... Glad to provide more info if needed.
