I have seen this as well.  It seems only to be a problem when you click
on the 'Upgrade' button, when it does some checks before displaying the
Release Notes.  I can verify this by starting update-manager with ports
80 and 443 blocked on the proxy server (ie, http and https forced
through the proxy), clicking 'Upgrade' (at which point update-manager
freezes) and then going on to the proxy and unblocking those two ports.
When the firewall is restarted with ports 80 and 443 open, update-
manager continues to the Release Notes page.  I can then block the ports
on the proxy again and the upgrade continues as normal, using the proxy.
I am guessing that there is just one point in the code where the proxy
is being ignored.
