Katello is bypassing the configured HTTP proxy

At first, let me provide the output you were asking for:

-bash-4.2$ psql pulpcore -c 'select url, proxy_url from core_remote'

                                             url                                              |         proxy_url
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+----------------------------
 https://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL7/latest/x86_64/                            | http://<proxy.example.com>
 https://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL7/addons/x86_64/                            | http://<proxy.example.com>
 https://yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL8/appstream/x86_64/                                | http://<proxy.example.com>
 https://yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL8/addons/x86_64/                                   | http://<proxy.example.com>
 https://yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL8/baseos/latest/x86_64/                            | http://<proxy.example.com>
 https://packages.elastic.co/elasticsearch/2.x/centos                                         | http://<proxy.example.com>
(6 rows)

The proxy URL shows up for every single repository I’ve set up. Please note that I have replaced the original proxy URL from the output with http://<proxy.example.com>, of course :slight_smile:

Your second hint sounds very interesting, though I cannot apply the patch itself, since my current version of /usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pulp_rpm/app/downloaders.py only has 52 lines, so it differs from https://github.com/pavelpicka/pulp_rpm/blob/c717196dab597f4a21ed71e3ce10097d14dc49f3/pulp_rpm/app/downloaders.py in more than just one change.
However, I could do the change manually, but I’m not sure if that’s the way to go.

Let me provide you some further information:

relevant pulp package
