Testing checkbox 013.9, here's what I did:

1- With checkbox 0.13.7 installed, ran:

http_proxy='http://whatever.com: text' /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/network_check

Result: Error trace as seen in the original report.

2- With checkbox 0.13.7 installed, ran:

http_proxy='http://gamerunblock.com' /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/network_check

Result: OOPS, a gtk window saying failed to connect. This is because the script points to an invalid URL.

3- Checkbox 0.13.7, manually modified the script to point to a valid URL, ran :

http_proxy='http://gamerunblock.com' /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/network_check

Result: HTTP Connection: success

So the bad behavior in item 1 was observed. Now, with checkbox 013.9:

1- With checkbox 0.13.9 installed, ran:

http_proxy='http://whatever.com: text' /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/network_check

Result: GTK window saying HTTP connection: Failed. (THIS is the fix in action, so it works, yay!)

2- With checkbox 0.13.9 installed, ran:

http_proxy='http://gamerunblock.com' /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/network_check

Result: OOPS, a gtk window saying failed to connect. This is because the script points to an invalid URL.

3- Checkbox 0.13.9, manually modified the script to point to a valid URL, ran :

http_proxy='http://gamerunblock.com' /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/network_check

Result: HTTP Connection: success

So the proposed fix is working as expected. I'll set to verification-done.
