I build using:

    export http_proxy='http://10.xx.yy.zz:8000/

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:

Perhaps Yos (or the Vagrant file) did not read the section there about
LB_APT_HTTP_PROXY?
