corporate environment apt problem

[POWERS, ZACK]

What extra slashes?
The trailing slash is necessary. The issue might be with passing the
user name. There has always been some ambiguity on how to pass a
domain users name in UNIX environments.

Try these formats instead:
export http_proxy=http://somedomain\\usrname:passwd@proxyip:port/
or
export http_proxy=http://usrname@somedomain:passwd@proxyip:port/
