Just upgraded to 10.04 from 9.10, Ubuntu Software Center seems to ignore proxy settings no matter how you set it up.
- network proxy in system preferences is setup and applied globally
- network proxy is manually configured in package manager
- in gnome-terminal, did export http_proxy and ftp_proxy and lanunched software center from the command line
All of these settings seem to be ignored. I can live with this because I usually use package manager rather than software center, but it's annoying nonetheless, especially in business context where squid or other proxy is usually in place.
