Bug 5900 – gentoo-stats via proxy

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Nicolas Kaiser 2002-08-02 07:16:00 UTC]

I think it would be nice to be able to use gentoo-stats via http-proxy.
Currently I'm using the below hardcoded settings. Would it be a good idea to
make this an optional argument?

Thanks for the pointer of how to do it. Eventually there will be a config file
where you can set those options.

Please note that this is not a priority right now... lots of work to do :-/
My apologies.
