[Marble-devel] Socks5 Proxy Patch

[Andrew Manson]

Hi all,

as it turns out myself and Torsten were working on the same problem at 
the same time ;) and as you can imagine we came up with different 
solutions. We both were adding Proxy authentication to the Widget, but i 
added the extra functionality of being able to choose between a HTTP 
proxy and a Socks5 proxy. I am not sure if the proxy bug is limited to 
certain types of proxy but i do know that having a Socks5 proxy 
supported will provide an alternative solution to people stuck behind a 
proxy that isn't currently working with the Qt Http Proxy.

I was planning to just commit this patch but as it would be overwriting 
Torsten's stuff completely i thought i should ask first. ;)

This patch is tested using a real proxy setup and is fully working.

-Andrew
