[OE-core] [PATCH v2] scripts/send-error-report: simple hack to use proxy from the enviroment

[Stefan Stanacar]

People behind a proxy couldn't send an error report to an upstream server,
this should fix the issue if they use a proxy that doesn't require authentication,
or one that uses basic http authentication and it's correctly exported in the enviroment.
