pip can’t use a proxy from inside the plugins/docker image

I get this for plugins/docker

119  Step 5/8 : RUN pip install flask 31s
120  ---> Running in 322792bd6c25 31s
121  Collecting flask                          32s
122  Retrying (Retry(total=4, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None)) after connection broken by 'ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', NewConnectionError('<pip._vendor.requests.packages.urllib3.connection.VerifiedHTTPSConnection object at 0x7f36182b5d68>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno -3] Temporary failure in name resolution',))': /simple/flask/

But pip is able to use the same proxy without issues in other images.
For example, the “python” image:

The docker plugin runs docker-in-docker. Perhaps some special configuration is required when working with proxy servers, such as setting the http_proxy, https_proxy and no_proxy variables? Or perhaps it is an issue with DNS [1] and you need to explicitly pass the dns server to the plugin using the custom_dns plugin parameter.
