setting proxy on httplib2

I have a trouble of connecting to a website using httplib2. My computer is behind a firewall and, as https://code.google.com/p/httplib2/wiki/Examples suggests, I did as follows:

import httplib2
from httplib2 import socks

http = httplib2.Http(proxy_info = httplib2.ProxyInfo(socks.PROXY_TYPE_HTTP, <proxy host address>, 8080, proxy_user = <proxy user id>, proxy_pass = <proxy password>))
resp, content = http.request("http://google.com", "GET")

But, I am still getting 

httplib2.ServerNotFoundError: Unable to find the server at google.com

My computer works fine with urllib2. Can anybody help me?

It depends on your proxy server, if you use socket5(Shadowsock) you can use this

http = httplib2.Http(proxy_info=httplib2.ProxyInfo( httplib2.socks.PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS5, '127.0.0.1', 1080))

You can try using "PROXY_TYPE_HTTP_NO_TUNNEL" if your server requires no tunneling

import httplib2

http = httplib2.Http(proxy_info = httplib2.ProxyInfo(httplib2.socks.PROXY_TYPE_HTTP_NO_TUNNEL, 'proxy.example.com', 8080, proxy_user = 'username', proxy_pass = 'password') )
resp, content = http.request("http://google.com", "GET")

It was a known bug that was fixed due to an issue #38
