I’ve been away for a few weeks and after applying the 2-week worth of updates that were pending, the apps on my Fedora 39 KDE spin are no longer able to connect to the network via my institution proxy configured on the system.
ping
works, the proxy is still configured in KDE config and the HTTP(S)_PROXY
/ http(s)_proxy
variables are all there, but no application connects using the system configuration.
(obvious rebooting and plugging unplugging, etc, were tried and failed)
Nextcloud, Thunderbird and Firefox all fail to connect.
If I configure Firefox to autodetect the proxy, though, then it connects fine.
Any idea what could have triggered this?
