In my case the proxy wasn't being used. Running
sudo -E /usr/lib/update-notifier/package-data-downloader
from a command prompt fixed it.

I hit this problem too. I didn't use unetbootin, dd'd directly to my
usb stick.
Installed to encrypted lvm+btrfs. Failed around the install software
phase, tasksel died.
Workaround for me was to:
chroot /target /bin/bash
mv /e
