PackageKit has never supported the no_proxy environment variable. At the moment, the only things that are passed to the daemon as part of the per-user proxy settings is the http_proxy and the ftp_proxy. Is this obviously less than ideal, as we have other people wanting to use the https proxy setting too. What I want to do is expand the interface, and have: string: http_proxy string: https_proxy string: ftp_proxy string: ignore_proxy (comma delimited) Do you think there are any other settings required?

Generally the environment variable is no_proxy I believe, not sure if you want to use that for the sake of consistency. Presumably it will still support the format, protocol://username:password@server:port because, you might use a http proxy server for https traffic.

It breaks DBus interface API, but is careful to maintain packagekit-glib and packagekit-qt API and ABI compatibility.

Overview: PackageKit respects proxy settings such as "http_proxy" from the system environment, but not "no_proxy". This means it fails when certain repositories (such as local mirrors) cannot use a proxy, and their address is listed in ignore (no_proxy). Steps to Reproduce: Set a system proxy, exclude for your repository mirror, install new package from repository mirror. 1) Set your package mirror to a specific server (if not already). 2) Set proxy: export http_proxy=http://localhost:3128 3) Set exclude for mirror: export no_proxy=[mirror],[mirror-ip] 4) Install a _new_ package (one not yet downloaded) pkcon install [package] Actual Results: PackageKit cannot download the package & deps, even though it should not be using the proxy for that mirror. Expected Results: PackageKit should respect the no_proxy environment variable, as it is the http_proxy variables. Build Date & Platform: Version 0.6.11 release 1.fc14 on Fedora 14 x86_64 Additional Information: Unset your proxy (unset http_proxy) and re-try the command. It works (as expected, because there is no proxy).
