I do these 2 things to achieve this:

1. Before doing any elbe commands, I export the "http_proxy" environment
variable:

export http_proxy="http://192.168.42.42:8888"

2. In the XML file for the target image I add the "primary_proxy"
element (right after "primary_proto"):

       ...
       <primary_proto>http</primary_proto>
+      <primary_proxy>http://192.168.42.42:8888</primary_proxy>
       <url-list>
       ...
