I would like to discuss the possibility to add the patch described in this report in comps for F-13 and later.
https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/3565
The basic idea is to make libproxy default installed plugins more in shape with the actual set of installed packages for a given system.
That, so application using libproxy will discover or receive the proxy configuration automatically as soon as they use system settings.
As I agree that this change appears rather late in the Fedora process, and libproxy is indeed in the crithpath for updates (why actually?!),
I would give an opportunity to discuss this more widely.

So the other question is : Is there any problem in adding this change to comps for F-13 ?
https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/attachment/ticket/3565/adds-libproxy2comps.patch
As a record, on a default install and without this change: libproxy is pointless.
But If one want to use libproxy, he will have to figure out which packages to install manually. This patch assume a reasonable default, so having libproxy installed just make sense.
Thx for advices.
