Hello, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
i tried to use layman (current stable version). The problem ist that i sit |
| 4 |
behind a proxy server which covers the http(s) protocol only. All other ports |
| 5 |
are closed. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
In the config file of layman (/etc/layman/...) i entered the proxy server and |
| 8 |
the listening port. Then layman was able to get the list of overlays. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
But if i want to get an overlay (here: x11 overlay) it starts git to get it. |
| 11 |
After a while git aborts with a timeout. It seems that git does not take the |
| 12 |
proxy info layman has into account. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Tried also to export the proxy: |
| 15 |
export http_proxy="<proxy-server>:<proxy-port>" |
| 16 |
or |
| 17 |
export http_proxy="http://<proxy-server>:<proxy-port>" |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
before executing |
| 20 |
layman -a x11 |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
but this didn't help. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
How to overcome the problem ? |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Does layman pass the proxy info to the executed sub-programs (i.e. cvs, |
| 27 |
subversion, git, ...) ? |
| 28 |
(it not that may be an enchancement) |
