If the http_proxy environment variable is set but empty, python's urllib
craps its pants and tries to concatenate a string with a NoneType
object:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/update-notifier/package-data-downloader", line 234, in
process_download_requests
dest_file = urllib.urlretrieve(files[i])[0]
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib.py", line 93, in urlretrieve
return _urlopener.retrieve(url, filename, reporthook, data)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib.py", line 243, in retrieve
fp = self.open(url, data)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib.py", line 201, in open
name = 'open_' + urltype
TypeError: cannot concatenate 'str' and 'NoneType' objects
That's what is causing the bug.

Title:
Flash doesn't work after upgrading it with Muon
Status in Python:
New
Status in “python2.7” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I installed Flash installing the restricted-extras, but every time
that is a update avaliable and I upgrade the package using Muon, Flash
doesn't work anymore. To fix it, I need to uninstall the package and
install it using the terminal. And I know that this issue doesn't
happen with other package managers.
I reported this as a Muon bug (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=308186)
and they told me this:
<<Yes, it does fail within Muon, but the ultimate failure is an uncaught
exception in the script the packaging runs to download the actual flash plugin.
The difference would be that package managers like apt-get and Synaptic run
dpkg in a terminal emulator, whereas package managers like Muon and PackageKit
run dpkg in a pty. (A perfectly valid thing to do.) The script within the
flashplugin-installer package erroneously assumes that the package is being
installed in a virtual terminal emulator environment, which triggers the
uncaught exception within the script.>>
So, I hope you can solve this.
