Package: apt
Version: 0.5.4
Severity: important
Hi,
First off I would like to apologize if you think I have rated this bug to
high, but i feel that it is a serious problem. Apt-get honors my http_proxy
and ftp_proxy variables set in /etc/environment but ignores the no_proxy
variable also set. This means the proxy is needlessly filled up with debs
and package info for accessing a local server. I use the environment
variables rather than setting things explicitly with apt's own proxy stuff as
this way it works for wget and lynx (and I suspect a few others) from just
one location - easy maintenance. Therefore if you could change apt so it
honored the no_proxy environment variable i would be most grateful, both of
the speed increase through not using the proxy and the network admins
grateful of me not clogging up the proxy(web cache).
Thank you,
Stuart Rowan.

It does support it, but the syntax is very picky.
