apt-get fails through broken proxy
I run a Debian derivative on a portable memory stick
and I have to connect through an ISA proxy server
(both http and ftp).
The proxy is broken and misconfigured so it won't
download any .gz files, hence I can't apt-get.
I have reported the case and the possible solution to
system administrator, who is happily ignoring it, so I
have to live with that.
I can download .deb files so I can install individual
packages, but I can't update/upgrade.
I just wonder if anyone has a possible workaround on
my end, before giving up.
Thanks
Ottavio Caruso
