Public bug reported:
Hi,
I have noticed a problem in update-manager and it is being there for a
long time. The problem is with packages which download the content via
proxy while installing. I have a proxy configured in the system and it
works fine. update-manager uses proxy settings and works well too.
However the packages like flashplugin-installer and ttf-mscorefonts-
installer can not fetch their data while installing via update-manager.
If I do the command line installation "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-
installer" or "sudo apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer" it works
fine. With update manager configured to use proxy these two packages can
not be installed because they can not download the content.
