Originally reported at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/861158 Did fail using most of the internet-related features of banshee because banshee did try to use the proxy (Null) and failed there. The reason for this failure was that I had used a proxy wees ago and reverting to "direct internet connection" did not revert the key /system/http_proxy/use_http_proxy to "false". The problem comes from the change in semantics in some of the keys after they were ported from GConf to GSettings, as explained in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/banshee/+bug/861158/comments/3. Attached is a patch that fixes the issue.
Created attachment 200588 [details] [review] Patch to fix the issue from Rodrigo Moya on the original bug
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report. I've committed a slightly different patch, keeping the use_http_proxy key for backwards compatibility.
