           Summary: Adept neither honours KDE proxy settings nor has a means
                    of graphically setting proxy
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: i386
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: adept
        AssignedTo: jriddell at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: martyn at welchs.me.uk

In the standard Kubuntu install it seems that adept is the only graphical
package manager.

Adept does not provide a means of setting a proxy, nor does it honour KDE's
proxy setting.

This results in users needing to add "/etc/apt/apt.conf", containing
"ACQUIRE::http::Proxy "http://wwwcache.lancs.ac.uk:8080/";" manually.
