The http_proxy, https_proxy are also empty so some python build does not work inside proxy. For example, "python3-chardet" is not compiled inside proxy environment.

Why does it need a proxy during build? 73997 2 parkch98 2017-06-12 16:26:07 +0000 Hi, it's not a python3-chardet bug. For fetch stage, the http_proxy/https_proxy/no_proxy are kept but they have gone in the build stage. Many of the companies use the proxy server for caching purpose and I have to use the proxy configuration for in-house network configurations. 74040 3 jku 2017-06-13 07:58:22 +0000 (In reply to comment #2) > Hi, it's not a python3-chardet bug. > For fetch stage, the http_proxy/https_proxy/no_proxy are kept but they have > gone in the build stage. > Many of the companies use the proxy server for caching purpose and I have to > use the proxy configuration for in-house network configurations. Sure. The question is: why does python3-chardet need network access _after_ fetch? In my opinion it should not -- all required resources should be downloaded during fetch. This still seems like a recipe issue to me. 74205 4 richard.purdie 2017-06-15 14:35:52 +0000 I agree with Jussi, network access should not be happening outside of do_fetch. If it does, the manifests and other tools which handle source scanning are incomplete and don't have access to valid data. This is therefore not a bug. If python3-chardet needs data from the network, it needs to get this in do_fetch. 74286 5 parkch98 2017-06-16 14:40:22 +0000 Hmm. I also agree we have to download the source during the fetch phase. However, Someone will assume BB_PRESERVE_ENV will keep the environments all of the stage. I found the openobex 1.7.2 version also has same problem. It fetch the xml file during cmake build.
