Description zebul666 2011-08-27 15:46:44 UTC 
The context: I had problem with exaile and radiotray, both using gstreamer to listen to stream. In fact, I later found with exaile, that they try to connect to a http_proxy, here 127.0.0.1, that I was not using anymore

Checking dconf setting, I found that system/proxy/http/enabled was false, but NONETHELESS, those 2 programs tried to use a proxy that they should not.

I had to change system/proxy/mode from manual to none

I don't know against what fill this bug, but I see this as a bug of dconf.


the BUG:
If system/proxy/mode is set to manual and even with sysmte/proxy/http/enabled set to false, programs try to use a http proxy !
Comment 1 zebul666 2011-08-27 15:51:30 UTC 
oh and the same happens, of course, with rhythmbox
I.E. trying to listening to an internet stream with the wrong dconf setting, fails.

This is basically a bug in the schema; system/proxy/http/enabled is not actually used (note that there is nothing in the control panel that changes its value).
