Description of problem: Quoting akozumpl's words: """DNF has basic proxy support but 1) it is not exposed in the API and 2) we haven't implemented any proxy authentication support yet.""" The dnf-based package payload code in the Anaconda installer requires full proxy support from DNF in order to replace the yum-based payload that is about to (hopefully) go away soon. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dnf-0.5.4-1.fc21 Additional info: to provide a notion of what Anaconda requires, here the documentation for the Anaconda's 'proxy' option: > proxy=[protocol://][username[:password]@]host[:port] > Use the given proxy settings when performing an HTTP/HTTPS/FTP installation.
Thanks Vratislav, we'll provide this.
Fixed by de90eff, this will be a part of the 0.5.5 release. You can check out the preview of the documentation at [1]. [1] http://dnf.readthedocs.org/en/latest/api_repos.html#dnf.repo.Repo.proxy
