Ah, sorry, I am away from home until end of week (business trip) and didn't take that particular machine with me. But If I remember correctly that machine had the same apt entries as the notebook I am just working with, which are
deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy main restricted universe multiverse deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy-updates main restricted universe multiverse deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy-proposed main restricted universe multiverse deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy-backports main restricted universe multiverse deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu gutsy-security main restricted universe multiverse and similar deb-src entries. update-manager complained about "third party" entries and disabled them all by prepending a # character and adding it's own entry. BTW, I have a much more serious problem with that: I am taking care of some more ubuntu machines in a protected network completely without any internet access. I was installing them with ubuntu mirrors on DVD or usb harddisk. But if update-manager insists on using it's own, network based upgrade repository, I don't see how these machines could be upgraded (except by manually changing the deb entries from gutsy to hardy and doing an apt-get dist-upgrade). update-manager should test and verify every existing deb entry (including DVDs and file:/// entries) whether it could be used as a repository for the intended upgrade. regards Hadmut -- update-manager does not accept debian proxies https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/216907 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
