RC1 is showing new problems related to zypper proxy authentication. The .curlrc
file has the correct format, and curl itself works with no problems (also, the
proxy environment variables are set correctly).
Unfortunately, zypper now refuses to authenticate with the proxy. We have a
workaround - we have set up Squid so that squid does the authentication with
the external proxy. We then set the local proxy settings to point at Squid with
no authentication required. This allows zypper to work correctly.
I have attached a tarball containing:
* screenshot of yast failing to add external repository + curl managing to
download
* All the Yast logs
* zypper logs while failing to add repository
* my .curlrc (which is correct)
* tcpdump log of zypper attempting to authenticate
From everything I've seen, it looks to me like zypper attempts to get the xml
file via the proxy; the proxy requests authentication; zypper gives up (i.e.
does not send proxy authentication response) thinking it's got a permanent
error (?)
