[Bug 820383] Re: package-data-downloader fails if apt is configured to use an http proxy that only supports package downloading

[npullover]

The previous comment # 7, is perfect as a temporary bug but if I can
download multiple file I modified as well as the following sample files
[#]:

 # Download each file and verify the sum
                                try:
                                        files[0] = "/home/cmcaba-it/andale32.exe"
                                        files[1] = "/home/cmcaba-it/arial32.exe"
                                        files[1] = "/home/cmcaba-it/arialb32.exe"
                                        for i in range(len(files)):
                                                print "%s: downloading %s" % (relfile, files[i])
                                                #dest_file = urllib.urlretrieve(files[i])[0]

  I have ONLY an apt-proxy defined here

  cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/proxy
  Acquire::http::proxy "http://192.168.100.58:3142/";

  i must temporary move the /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/proxy then do a

  sudo dpkg-reconfigure ttf-mscorefonts-installer

  to get the font installer ignore the DEB proxy... and can get the
  fonts via web...
