proxy authentication

[Stefan Feilmeier <stefan deeproot in>]

Hello.

I like F-Spot very much and all my photos are well sorted there and I
love the integration into flickr. Just one thing: In my new office we
are using a proxy that requires authentication. The shell variable
http_proxy is set to the correct value but when trying to authorize at
flickr F-Spot gives the error "Unable to log on. Proxy Authentication
Required (407)"

Any way to get a connection?

Thanks in advance,
Stefan
