Are you completely sure?

[«avelasquez@avelasquez-desktop ~»]$ echo $http_proxy
http://localhost:5865
[«avelasquez@avelasquez-desktop ~»]$ https_proxy=$http_proxy
[«avelasquez@avelasquez-desktop ~»]$ echo $https_proxy
http://localhost:5865
[«avelasquez@avelasquez-desktop ~»]$ pkgstats
Creating package list...
Submitting data...

And never submit anything,

note: I am using ntlmaps as a proxy server since I am behind a noisy ISA Server.

With the patch that I've sent, that isn't happening to me, are you
completely sure about the http_proxy env var and https_proxy are
detected automatically by curl? is this a curl bug?
