cobbler-ubuntu-import fails to import if ISO_DIR is missing

  * debian/cobbler-ubuntu-import: Support wget'ing via a proxy via -p argument,

fwiw, I'm guessing that the http proxy code that was committed under this bug would have been doable via 'http_proxy' environment variable, which is fairly widely known and respected (by wget and apt at least).

oh, and now i see it *does* use that variable, so i'm only curious now why adding a flag was deemed superior to just using the environment variable (as wget would have used).

Scott-

I opted for a new flag since the main user of this script so far is orchestra-import-isos. I'd rather it pass the '-p' flag depending on its configuration, rather than exporting an environment variable and hope that cobbler-ubuntu-import is still using something like wget that respects it. Whether or not orchestra-import-isos wants to use a proxy should be passed as input to cobbler-ubuntu-import, not some tool its currently using internally. Personally, I think the use of 'wget $URL1 || wget $URL2' is a bit clunky and wouldn't mind seeing that rewritten at some point in the future using something a bit more flexible than wget (curl, httplib).
