Bug Description
Hello,
while I was locked in a network that required setting a proxy to access
outside, I found out that in Dapper I need to set up the proxy in three
places:
1) The gnome settings
2) Firefox connection settings
3) Synaptic package manager
It would be nice if Synaptic could take the proxy settings from gnome:
having to set proxies in 3 places was annoying and hard to explain in a
course.
Ciao,
Enrico

I agree with this bug. It is severely irritating (I move into and out of a lab with proxy on a daily basis) to have to set proxy settings in three places. Why hasn't this bug been confirmed?
