gnomeproxy.c line 101 at 105: in getGConfProxyInfo

 	if (strcasecmp(cprotocol, "http") == 0 || useSame) {
		gboolean useProxy = gconf_client_get_bool(client,
				"/system/http_proxy/use_http_proxy", NULL);
		if (!useProxy) {
			proxyInfo = NULL;
			goto exit;
		}

thus if direct connection is choosen in gnome proxyInfo will be NULL.

Though the java code expect it not to be : UnixProvider.java l.169 at 172
		if (isGnomeLibLoaded) {
			try {
				// Then ask Gnome
				pd = getGConfProxyInfo(protocol);
                                ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
				System.out.println(pd);
				if (Policy.DEBUG_SYSTEM_PROVIDERS)
					Policy.debug("Got Gnome proxy: " + pd); //$NON-NLS-1$
				pd.setSource("LINUX_GNOME"); //$NON-NLS-1$
                                ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
				return pd;
			} catch (UnsatisfiedLinkError e) {
				// The library should be loaded, so this is a real exception
				Activator.logError(
						"Problem during accessing Gnome library", e); //$NON-NLS-1$
			}
		}


I don't have a patch yet because I don't know the use of pd.setSource ...
I am investigating.


Currently this break all gnome/eclipse install where gnome is set to direct connection (most common use case) with:
