[chef] http_proxy not work for recipe_url?

["Brian J. Murrell" < >]

I have a solo.rb file with the following in it:

json_attribs 
"https://u:
 /path/node.json"
recipe_url   
"https://u:
 /path/cookbooks.tar.gz"
http_proxy   "http://proxy:3128";
https_proxy  "http://proxy:3128";

# chef-solo

seems to be using the proxy to fetch the node.json file but it seems to 
be trying to connect directly to "server" to fetch the cookbooks.tar.gz 
file.

Is this a known issue/limitation of the proxy support in chef?  I would 
have thought it would be generic for all HTTP activities.

From chef's debug:

Any ideas?
