Public bug reported: Currently if the proxy is configured for the UA client it is setting up global proxy for the entire apt:
* To change what ubuntu-advantage-tools sets, run one of the following: * Substitute "apt_https_proxy" for "apt_http_proxy" as necessary. * sudo ua config set apt_http_proxy=<value> * sudo ua config unset apt_http_proxy */ Acquire::http::Proxy http://<proxy_ip>:3128; Acquire::https::Proxy http://<proxy_ip>:3128; In the clouds though all the packages come from the cloud-based mirrors except UA-related ones. There is a use case currently when a customer wants to set up a proxy to reach the UA repositories but the proxy is throttling the bandwidth and it is impossible to pull all the packages through it. Suggesting to set up proxy in apt specifying the repo names such as Acquire::http::Proxy::<esm repo> "http://your.proxy.host/";; Acquire::http::Proxy::<fips repo> "http://your.proxy.host/";; ** Affects: ubuntu-advantage-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1956764 Title: Proxy should be set up only for ua-related repos To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-advantage-tools/+bug/1956764/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
