@juliank Respectfully disagree. Calling `no_proxy="" sudo apt update` still by- passes the proxy. This is not the cause of the problem.
> Please note that while http_proxy does not override Acquire::http::proxy, no_proxy does. This too, seems rather inconsistent to me. Is this behavior documented somewhere? I read through the bug reports and found many tickets relating to apt dealing with http_proxy and no_proxy. It seems the behavior changed over time and I am not the only one who lost track of what apt does with these settings. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2055717 Title: Acquire::http::proxy ignored / used inconsistently? Status in apt package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Problem description I have a client (A) and a freight server (B) serving apt packages on the same network. I also have a proxy server (C), which the client uses to talk to "the internet". When I run `sudo apt update`, my client talks to the freight server directly, without contacting the proxy. However, when `apt.daily` runs, the client contacts the proxy, which then connects to the freight server. Expected behavior Although updates work in both cases, the current behavior is inconsistent. The proxy should be used in both cases or in neither case. Setup details I use Ubuntu 22.04.4 with apt 2.4.11 (amd64). /etc/apt/sources.list.d/freight.list contains the local freight server. /etc/apt/sources.list lists the official Ubuntu repositories. /etc/apt/apt.config.d/95proxy contains one line `Acquire::http::proxy "http://my.proxy:8080/"`. Omitting the proxy config (`Acquire::http::proxy "false"`) lets the client contact the freight server directly during `apt.daily`, but updating the official repositories fails. Having the proxy properly configured,`apt.daily` succeeds but with the described inconsistent behavior. Note: I am aware that proxy exceptions can be configured using the "DIRECT" keyword.
