socket.gaierror: (-5, 'No address associated with hostname')

[yan]

I have set http_proxy in .bashrc. And I can use w3m access the web in console.

bzr branch lp:mysql-server/5.1 mysql-5.1

get:
bzr: ERROR: socket.gaierror: (-5, 'No address associated with hostname')

This is a duplicate of bug #271573

See https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/python/+bug/186920/comments/31 for a possible way to address the problem, but noone has written the relevant fix so far.

Damn paste, of course I meant it's a duplicate of bug #186920.
