Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-pkg (Nobody)
<pkg@FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback:
Bug 294685: ports-mgmt/pkg: regession, pkg 2.7 does not honour http_proxy from
pkg.conf any more
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=294685



--- Description ---
Hello,

within several VMs I have to configure a http proxy in pkg.conf by
pkg_env: { http_proxy: ....}

This used to work up to pkg 2.6.2.

At the moment I have some VMs with pkg 2.7.0 and 2.7.4, all ignoring the
http_proxy configuration.

tcpdumps from 2.6.2 and 2.7.x showed that 2.7.0 tries to connect to
pkgmir.geo.freebsd.org directly, while 2.6.2 uses the configured proxy as
expected.


Kind regards

  Ralf
