Binary package hint: ubufox

the plugin finder wizard and apturl don't share the same proxy information.

1. The short term solution to fix gutsy is to pass a --http-proxy host:port parameter to apturl if firefox has any proxy configured.

2. The long term solution would be to all applications honour system proxy settings (aka gconf).
