Description Hanna Wallach 2005-02-13 17:17:38 UTC 
Version details: also seen in versions up to and including 0.25.1
Distribution/Version: Debian testing/unstable

1. Set the machine's network proxy to "Automatic proxy configuration" (I use my
university's .pac file: http://www.cam.ac.uk/proxyconfig.pac) by going to the
GNOME menu and selecting Applications -> Desktop Preferences -> Network Proxy.
2. Open straw, and try to refresh feed(s).
3. Straw places the "cog" icon next to the feed(s) and waits, seemingly forever. 

If, however, the network proxy is set to "Direct internet connection" then feeds
update fine.
