New question #175218 on Medibuntu:
https://answers.launchpad.net/medibuntu/+question/175218

Sitting behind a proxy, Ubuntu is not yet intelligently enough to stay with the 
environment of the user. In a nutshell, the suggest command to obtain the 
repositories "sudo apt-get ..." will change the environment to the root user. 
And then the command fails, in case the root user has not set proxies. 
My suggestion ('patch') is to use "sudo -E apt-get ..." instead. It is my 
conviction that the chances of the user being connected through a proxy is 
higher than that of the system administrator, when a proxy needs to be 
configured.
