[Bug 877088] Re: Network proxy setting does not set apt.conf from the second time

[Rodrigo Moya]

I think u-s-s already had this bug of writing the same to every file
under /etc/apt, but anyway, looking for a fix...

Title:
  Network proxy setting does not set apt.conf from the second time

Status in “ubuntu-system-service” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in “ubuntu-system-service” source package in Oneiric:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  How to reproduce:
    1. open network settings in gnome-control-center
    2. set proxy like the example below:
        * method - manual
        * HTTP Proxy - example.com:8080
        * HTTPS Proxy - example.com:8090
    3. press "Apply system wide"
        - confirm proxy settings are written in /etc/environment and /etc/apt/apt.conf
    4. turn off proxy by set back the Method to "None" and press "Apply system wide" again.
        - confirm proxy settings are gone from /etc/environment and /etc/apt/apt.conf
    5. set proxy again as well as step. 2, then press "Apply system wide" again.

  Expected to happen:
    6. proxy settings are written in /etc/environment and /etc/apt/apt.conf

  What happened instead:
    6. proxy settings are written in only /etc/environment, then /etc/apt/apt.conf remains as blank.
