Problem while creating the 95proxies file

Question

When I run this command in Terminal:

sudo gedit /etc/apt/apt.conf.d 

The following message is displayed:

/etc/apt/apt.conf.d is directory
please check that you typed the location correctly and try again

Please help in resolving this to create 95 proxies file in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d path.

Answer 1

Give the filename as well:

sudo -H gedit /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/95proxies

And please do not use sudo with graphical programs directly. Use gksudo, or sudo -H.
