Description
Hi,
With yum it's sometime useful to configure the proxy in the repo configuration to overload the yum.conf configuration
Example I have some local repository that does not use the proxy.
[standard-rhel7-extras]
name=YUM $releasever - $basearch
baseurl=http://myrepo.local/rhel7/standard-rhel7-extras/
enabled=1
proxy=_none_
Best regards,

Research direction
Start by locating the pkgrepo.managed implementation and the yum repository configuration handling. Check how repository options are currently passed, then verify that the requested proxy setting can be represented for a repository such as the local example; the change is done when pkgrepo.managed supports that option without relying only on yum.conf.
