[Bug 728710] Re: d-i apt-setup/local0/repository not working

[Carl Karsten]

Yep, removed proxy, apt-setup/local0/repository got added to
etc/apt/sources.list.

I see 2 or 3 bugs here:  I'll be happy to open new bugs if someone asks.

1.  If this is the only reason to enable the proxy:      # use the proxy for wgets (should speed things up)
don't use the proxy.  I suspect there are more reasons, like the proxy is the only way to get to the internet, so not using it will be good for my case but bad for some other case.  We should be sure there is a case that would be bad though.  like maybe proxying keys are bad and shouldn't be done anyway, so if it was working it should be fixed to not work.  

2. squid-deb-proxy needs to handle this.  Whatever this is.

3. d-i needs to error when this errors.  failing silently is bad.

Title:
  d-i apt-setup/local0/repository not working

Status in “apt-setup” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: debian-installer

  I have this in my presseed file (attached):

  d-i apt-setup/local0/repository string http://ppa.launchpad.net/carlfk/ppa/ubuntu maverick main
  d-i apt-setup/local0/comment string Carls PPA
  d-i apt-setup/local0/source boolean true
  d-i apt-setup/local0/key string http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x2EB11AEDA224C43C

  It does not get added to /etc/apt/sources.list

  Doesn't work in natty either.  It worked in ibex,  I think worked in
  jaunty, I don't know if it works in lucid.
