Hi Slávek,
For those of who don't know better, where would those commands go?
Thanks,
Michael
PS: I've had this happen (rarely) as well.
This is exactly from one of my machines:
# cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99fixbadproxy
Acquire::http::Pipeline-Depth "0";
Acquire::http::No-Cache=True;
Acquire::BrokenProxy=true;
Cheers
noted -- I will use them where needed.
Right now I am having better luck with downloads, having used wget to
procure the packages by alternate means, then my apt-get and dpkg
voodoo.
I am using a direct connection at present (if I did not make that
clear). Usually I am always running over Tor, but not until I get the
packages I need. (Or are you referring to a proxy not on my end, but
somewhere else in the chain?)

Yes, I mean the proxy "somewhere along the way". In the case of proxies,
which I have under my control (ie squid), these problems do not occur
there. But if the provider has implemented some "next generation
firewall", there may be a lousy transparent proxy at the provider.
Cheers
