Setting a general /etc/wgetrc file is not a good idea for non transparent proxies which require a username/password pair. In this case, only private files can be used.

In the following patch, I use either the Acquire::http::Proxy setting from /etc/apt/apt.conf or /root/.wgetrc as both can be restricted to root only.
