I build using:

I don't understand what the problem is, and I'm unsure about the
actual question you're asking.
Anyway, FWIW, the build system I use is documented there:
https://tails.boum.org/contribute/build/squid-deb-proxy/
Perhaps Yos (or the Vagrant file) did not read the section there about
LB_APT_HTTP_PROXY?
