This is a temporary bugfix. At this moment the libproxy code in libsoup
is unstable, so the libsoup developers decided to disable libproxy and
use gconf instead for proxy detection. The changelog states that it's a
temporary solution that will be worked out for 2.26.0. With 2.26.1, the
dependencies will be the same as we had with the 2.25.x release which
was in testing for a while.
