      Description

        Currently on linux we discover system proxy settings using the following way:
        1. Check proxy settings in gnome2 config (for example, for http - /system/http_proxy/use_http_proxy, /system/http_proxy/http_proxy, ...). If they exist, use it.
        2. Check proxy settings in env (for example, for http - $http_proxy,$HTTP_PROXY). If they exist, use it.
        3. Check proxy settings in /etc/environment (for example, for http the keys are http_proxy, HTTP_PROXY). If they exist, use it.

        We should change the order to 2-3-1, as environment variable is override of config and gnome config is special case.
