Yes, or wget should pick it up from the usual places like /etc/wgetrc or ~/.wgetrc. You should also be able to set it in your environment (http_proxy).

Basically, if you can do wget successfully from prompt, pkgutil should be able to use it as well.

If it doesn't work for you, please get back to us with info from the above files and the output of "pkgutil -V".
