As stated previously, that one is only supposed to be honored by the APT
conf (and it won’t work with an apt-cacher-ng like setup anyway).

I guess that’s the one that did prevent me to actually install Debian
Edu at work then: there is a working Internet connection, but that’s
behind a proxy…

“Funny” that the popcon question is turned off by default, while this
one is silently turn on.

Well, it only ensured that I couldn’t install tjener in a real life
environment so far, and it didn’t offer any alternative.

Will report tomorrow if I manage to work around that issue this way
(even if I’ll have to change the apt-proxy setting after pinging an URL
just for the sake of being tracked, that I don’t find really useful).
