For wget proxy /etc/wgetrc, you might wanna try setting env vars too. Run:
```
export http_proxy=http://proxy.example.com:8080
export https_proxy=http://proxy.example.com:8080
```
Then test wget. If it works, you know the issue is with the file, not the proxy itself.
```
export http_proxy=http://proxy.example.com:8080
export https_proxy=http://proxy.example.com:8080
```
Then test wget. If it works, you know the issue is with the file, not the proxy itself.
