Mintinstall ignores proxy settings #504

Closed

Description

@fnpngn

Proxy settings ("manual") set inside the network manager don't have an effect on my software manager.
I'm assuming those correspond to HTTP_PROXY and other proxy env vars.
Re-setting them, changing them in the network manager, restarting mintinstall does not seem to change anything.

    Correction: Mint 22.3 is Zena (Zara is 22.2).

    I am also struggling with this issue. dl.flathub.org is extremely slow without a proxy for me.

    Additionally, mintupdate seems to have the exact same problem when applying updates for Flatpak packages — though standard APT updates work fine, the Flatpak part ignores the proxy settings as well.
