Does this mean it is possible to disable proxy use by libzypp without relogin?
environ(7) explains editting the environment of current process, which affects forked children. But that does not affect parent processes, it's a local not global change. So in general no. For curl usage by YaST, always nullify http_proxy and only use ~root/.curlrc, or manage it's own setting somewhere to overwrite the _proxy variables, might be a solution.
From curl(1)
-x/--proxy <proxyhost[:port]> Use specified HTTP proxy. If the port number is not specified, it is assumed at port 1080. This option overrides existing environment variables that sets proxy to use. If there's an environment variable setting a proxy, you can set proxy to "" to override it. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
