Bug#279590: base-config: http/proxy fails to preseed
Package: base-config
Version: 2.40.8
Severity: normal
base-config seems to ignore the proxy settings I specify during the
first stage of the installer, leading to a warning message which
interrups a pre-seeded installation. Specifically, I'm setting
d-i mirror/http/proxy string http://web-proxy.rose.hp.com:8088/
in my preseed file. The value is getting copied to config.dat, but apt-setup
doesn't seem to be honoring it. Not sure how I can debug this further.
Tested using the netinst iso from

Thanks,
Paul.
