Description rohit raj 2010-08-03 05:25:46 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.4.2) 
OS:                Linux

I have recently upgraded from kubuntu 9.10 to kubuntu 10.04 using apt-get. My internet works. Kpackagekit works. I have set the necessary http_proxy variables and ftp_proxy variables in .bashrc and /etc/profile.d/proxy.sh . But apt-get fails in kubuntu 10.04 with following error

[code]

Kpackagekit works but if i try to install software recommended in update notifier same error happens

Reproducible: Always

You are here on the KDE bugtracker. You speak about apt-get. KDE is by no means related to Debian's package system (APT). As far as it regards your problem: 

You may use "export http_proxy" or - alternatively - configure /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/whatever and put there

Acquire::http::Proxy "http://proxy.adresse.de:port";
Acquire::ftp::Proxy "http://proxy.adresse.de:port";

apt-get is not part of the KDE Software Compilation. Please report this bug to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/
