Bug Description
This bug is essentially the same as
Bug #433827: Regression: "Automatic proxy configuration" + gnome-terminal now breaks apt-get, curl, wget...
where the http_proxy environment variable got set incorrectly by libsoup-gnome2.4-1 when "Automatic proxy configuration" is used in Gnome. For example:
"http://
becomes http_proxy=pac+http://
"file:
becomes http_proxy=wpad:// as we see here.
This breaks A LOT of applications. It has been reported upstream, see https:/

The error message
Error parsing proxy URL wpad://: Unsupported scheme `wpad'.
comes from Wget when the environment variable http_proxy is set to wpad:// .
As of Wget 1.12, Anyone can reproduce the problem as follows:
$ env LANG=C http_proxy=wpad:// wget http:// example. org/
Error parsing proxy URL wpad://: Unsupported scheme `wpad'.
I don't know where this comes from, except that it has something to do with the Gnome network proxy settings. It would be great if someone could shed some light on this puzzle. :-)
