#460: find the http proxy on windows more reliably ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: duncan | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: low | Milestone: _|_ Component: cabal-install tool | Version: Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: very hard (<1 week) Ghcversion: | Platform: ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Changes (by duncan): * priority: normal => low * difficulty: hard (< 1 day) => very hard (<1 week) * ghcversion: 6.8.3 => * version: 1.2.3.0 => * milestone: => _|_ Comment: This looks to be too hard. The workaround of setting an HTTP env var is apparently acceptable. A proper solution is not impossible but would need quite a bit of time to implement. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/460#comment:5 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
