Hi, I use a sys-apt-cacher-ng, which uses privoxy, i followed this guide for setting this up. I use saltstack to create my qubes. I purposefully deleted my current flatpak vm and used saltstack to create the same qube again. I used Solenes Guide as inspiration when writing my saltstack states. However
export all_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8082/
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
fails if i use sys-apt-cacher-ng with privoxy with this error:
error: Can't load uri https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo: While fetching https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo: [56] Failure when receiving data from peer
There are no logs in /var/log/apt-cacher-ng/apt-cacher.log for this call, in /var/log/apt-cacher-ng/apt-cacher.err is only this:
Fri May 9 22:04:09 2025|Detected incoming connection from the TCP socket
Fri May 9 22:04:09 2025|Client name: 127.0.0.1:59224
I tried changing using http instead of https for debugging but then I get this:
error: Can't load uri http://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo: Server returned status 403
this also does not work, but apt-cacher has a log for it in /var/log/apt-cacher-ng/apt-cacher.log: 1746820580|O|679|127.0.0.1|/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo and in /var/log/apt-cacher-ng/apt-cacher.err:
Fri May 9 22:04:49 2025|Detected incoming connection from the TCP socket
Fri May 9 22:04:49 2025|Client name: 127.0.0.1:35280
Fri May 9 22:04:49 2025|Decoded request URI: http://HTTPS///dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
in /var/log/privoxy/logfile is nothing interesting for both calls:

I temporarily removed the cacher config from 50-config-updates and it worked again, so sys-apt-cacher-ng is the real issue here.
