Living with a proxy

[Konrad Hinsen]

Hi everyone,

Here I come with my first problem...

When I use my laptop at work, any use of "guix download" (and any
package install etc.) ends with

   ERROR: In procedure connect: Network is unreachable

But I can download the exact same URL with wget. With that kind of
problem I tend to blame my network's Web proxy. I have configured it
by setting the environment variable http_proxy, which most Linux
software uses for this purpose. Does guix perhaps need something else?

Konrad.
