Gnome session doesn't run bash so it doesn't pic up the http_proxy in
~/.bashrc
You can however change the .desktop files of the programs like so:
Exec=http_proxy=http://someproxy.com:8080 gksudo synaptic
But you have to do this everytime you upgrade.
There is also a possibiltiy of changing it at /etc/profile but that doesn't
suite me because I have a laptop and it only changes when you startup
or Log out and login.
