[Bug 304889] Re: Does not use system proxy settings

[Felipe Contreras]

Small update.

Some Telepathy CM's such as gabble (XMPP) and butterfly (MSN) now have
some proxy support, however, they depend on libproxy doing the right
thing (which it usually doesn't). So essentially they still don't work.

A more generic solution should be implemented in GLib, however, they are
reluctant to provide HTTP Connect support because it's "unsafe" (no idea
what they are smoking).

So, as usual with anything GLib, there's progress, but it will take a
long long time before it actually works.
