redhat-support-trool.log

Description of problem:
When http proxy protected by user and password is defined in config redhat-support-tool can use it. When the same is done using variable http_proxy on environment it does not seem to work.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
redhat-support-tool-0.9.10-1.el7.noarch

How reproducible:
100%

Problem connecting to the support services API.  Is the service accessible from this host?

Expected results:
Work just like if its configured using config.

Additional info:
Log is attached. Is https_proxy (in addition to http_proxy) variable supposed to be used by RST? Seems to ignore that variable.
