Version: 0.4.2 (using KDE 4.3.2) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages Once i did some experiments with a local proxy installed on my system. So i entered the according values in the network module in the system settings. I selected the Option "Manually specify the proxy settings". After finishing my tests, i switched back to option "Connect to the internet directly" without removing the values (e.g http://127.0.0.1 : 3128). Now kpackagekit fails with error > The package download failed. > Please check your network connectivity. And in the details: > Failed to fetch http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/python2.6/libpython2.6_2.6.4-0ubuntu1_i386.deb Could not connect to 127.0.0.1:3128 (127.0.0.1). - connect (111: Connection refused) kpackagekit clearly uses the outdated proxy values even though the option "Connect to the internet directly" is selected. Workaround: remove the values also.
Some of the error details got lost by my first commit: > Failed to fetch http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/python2.6/libpython2.6_2.6.4-0ubuntu1_i386.deb >Could not connect to 127.0.0.1:3128 (127.0.0.1). - connect (111: Connection refused)
It's already fixed in 0.5.x versions. Thanks.
It seems that the Software Updates - System Settings application does not honor the ${HOME}/.kde/share/config/kioslaverc:ProxyType=0 , since It keeps using the proxy that I manually set, but disabled by selecting "Connect directly to the internet". Konqueror works fine though. I'm using kde 4.3.3 ( Kubuntu 9.10) installed from deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu karmic main
Yes that was the problem when you disable them, they don't get erased, they just change one status key that I wasn't checking, but as I said it's fixed in 0.5.x
I saw your https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213141#c2 comment before posting mine, but where do I check the version? From the Help menu it tells me that I have version 1.0 so I assumed there was a regression.
