well, the apt did recognize the change from the correct proxy setting to the "direct" settings (hence the error 111), but did not recognize the changing to the correct settings. I mean if earlier the variables were updated then why not the second time.
Also, i tried what you asked for and ending the terminal and then starting a terminal to run apt-get install afresh doesn't help. Still error 111 is shown. I hope this info helps.
