Bug#854012: libproxy-tools: Not working with MATE in Stretch

[Ivan Baldo]

Package: libproxy-tools
Version: 0.4.13-1.1
Severity: important

$ echo http://www.example.com/ | proxy
direct://

But in MATE in the network proxy settings I have setup my proxy in 
multiple ways, none of which
works.
Please, if someone is using MATE with current Stretch, try configuring a 
proxy, even a fake or non
existent one, and run that command to check that it says to use it.
Ideas of things to try are welcome too.
Thanks!!!
