The build environment should support proxy configuration through environment variables even inside the chroot.

I have been running a build behind a proxy with no other internet access last week and that worked well for me. Please let me know if something does not work as expected.

No, we have not changed anything here. However, I am getting the same problem across many repositories. However when I access them on people01 or fs01, everything is fine.

I disabled the check now because I cannot find anything. The internet has sources that it does not work well for shared repositories.

No.
