Very annoying, I could not upgrade from feisty to gutsy (7.04 -> 7.10) and I could not find a reason. Additionaly, id does not honor the automatic configuration URL (PAC file), nor has the option to autodetect network settings (but this is an error for gnome-network-manager). Please, make the update manager honors the proxy settings from /etc/apt/apt.conf
What is more frustrating, it did not give any message, like "could not connect to see if there is a new distribution available" but it just shown the text that "your distribution is up-to-date". -- Update Manager and synaptic HTTP Proxy settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/21536 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
