So, I decided to do a little patch to pkgstats, I've tested and now it's working .. (I am checking if the http_proxy env var is empty and else I am setting a variable called prox which have the value of the proxy).
That shouldn't be needed because curl reads the env vars itself (at least according to its man page)
Btw: pkgstats not that usable atm.
Well curl wasn't reading the env vars, in fact I had to add this option --proxy. So if curl isn't reading the env vars there is a curl's bug.
And why is not usable pkgstats?
Make sure your proxy support https and you have set https_proxy; the stats are sent via https; so setting just http_proxy does not work.
Are you completely sure? [«avelasquez@avelasquez-desktop ~»]$ echo $http_proxy http://localhost:5865 [«avelasquez@avelasquez-desktop ~»]$ https_proxy=$http_proxy [«avelasquez@avelasquez-desktop ~»]$ echo $https_proxy http://localhost:5865 [«avelasquez@avelasquez-desktop ~»]$ pkgstats Creating package list... Submitting data... And never submit anything, note: I am using ntlmaps as a proxy server since I am behind a noisy ISA Server. With the patch that I've sent, that isn't happening to me, are you completely sure about the http_proxy env var and https_proxy are detected automatically by curl? is this a curl bug? -- Angel Velásquez angvp @ irc.freenode.net Arch Linux Trusted User Linux Counter: #359909 http://www.angvp.com
