#4216 closed Bug (wontfix)
gnome3 Network Settings not in the same place

Description
Gnome3 has changed the place where the Network Settings are, and is not backward compatible with Gnome2 therefore Transmission will not be able to find if a proxy is set or not. The function below should be updated.
proxy_settings_populate( GConfClient * client, struct gtr_proxy_settings * settings )
I found a sample code on how to grab the Network Proxy settings using GSettings in Gnome3 here:

I have added a patch that depends on HAVE_GSETTINGS being defined.
It still needs work, but this is the way it should be handled.
Problem: Tried it with bad proxies, and transmission still connects to torrents, etc (I do not know how this works) all I could find was the "proxy_setup()" function.
Also I do not see the point in grabbing ftp proxy, etc.
To be continued.

This is probably too big of a change for 2.30, but ought to be used post-2.30
