Bug Description

Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

Hi Team!

I'm having a problem with "flashplugin-installer".

Basically, I've got this configuration in /etc/apt/apt.conf:
============================================================
Acquire::http::proxy "http://10.1.1.1:3128/";
Acquire::ftp::proxy "ftp://10.1.1.1:3128/";
Acquire::https::proxy "https://10.1.1.1:3128/";

Well, it seems that flashplugin-installer doesn't consider this setting when invoking the wget command:
