[Bug 797550] Re: indefinite download tries behind a proxy

[Marcel O.]

Just today we installed a new ubuntu server 11.10 for testing an OpenERP
instance.

And again i run into that problem...

I provide a update.log as attachment.

The commands were:

:~# echo $http_proxy
http://10.1.0.240:8080
:~# echo $HTTP_PROXY
http://10.1.0.240:8080

:~# apt-get update -o Debug::acquire::http=true > update.log  2>&1

Title:
  indefinite download tries behind a proxy

Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: apt

  I am using Kubuntu 11.04 behind a http proxy. 
  KPackageKit fails without reason, so I tried it with apt-get.
  The result was, that apt-get tries to download packages, but the velocity breaks up and apt-get retries the download. This results in nearly indefinite retries.
  I made a Screenshot with 6491 retries for chromium-browser-l10n.

  It would be nice to get apt-get to more verbosity, but setting the
  option "APT::Periodic::Verbose "9";" does nothing.

  If someone could tell me some more verbosity options i would comment this bugreport with further information.
  As a little hint: "apt-get update" downloads some new information and fails for some other... maybe with the same reason the download of packages fails.

  Thanks for any help in advance!
