Bug#612416: maven2: seems not to regard proxy settings

[andreas at an3as.eu]

Package: maven2
Version: 2.2.1-5
Severity: normal

Hi,

when I tried mvn the first time when sitting behind a web proxy
(http_proxy environment variable set) I've got:


$ mvn -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true archetype:generate -DgroupId=jam -DartifactId=lib-jam -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-quickstart -DinteractiveMode=false
[INFO] Scanning for projects...

As you see I have -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true set to make sure I do not
replicate #563946.  Any idea how to verify if my assumption of not regarding
http_proxy might be true?

Kind regards and thanks for maintaining maven2

      Andreas.
