Proxy setting for ubuntu 5.10 GUI Update Manager

Proxy setting for ubuntu 5.10 Update Manager:

Set proxies in Gnome "Network Proxy Setting", or in /etc/bash.bashrc, or /etc/wget.rc won't apply to Update Manager.
You had to put a line like this in /etc/apt/apt.conf

Acquire::http::Proxy "http://proxy.mydomain.com:8080"


In "Breezy Badger" you must edit apt.conf as follows:

Acquire
{
http::proxy "http://proxy.mydomain.com:8080"
}
