Vyos-vm-images add proxy

General questions
1

Hi,

i am struggling a little bit to add a proxy to the qemu.yml

any idea how to set the environment: "{{proxy_env}}" so that can the chroot env can use the proxy for download the packages.

under vars i added the proxy_env:

here is the guide to add a proxy, sounds easy but there is using a -block
anybody have a idea how to set the proxy correct.

Use set system proxy

this is my fix for using a proxy with this yaml.
