Isn't passing the option the equivalent to a command line option? This would override the environment variable and enable the turning on and off of proxy use without a logout / login. Regards Dave P For aria, yes. But the ZYpp aria backend is an extension of the curl backend, and fallbacks to curl for some operations that aria can't do, like 1 byte range transfer as a hack to check for file existence on broken ftp servers.
My fear is that for those operations, libcurl could override what libzypp set using curl_easy_set_opt (command line parameters equivalent) with the environment variables, thus overriding arias behavior (actually inverting it) and making the env variable authoritative. Does anyone know if curl/libcurl override set_opt with env variables? I can test, but not now ;-) Duncan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
