Public bug reported: When apt-cacher-ng is set as global apt proxy
> $ cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/apt-cacher > Acquire::http { Proxy "http://localhost:3142"; }; the ubuntu-release-upgrader tool will use the proxy setting to access the release notes [1] on archive.ubuntu.com. These will be answered by apt-cacher-ng with 403 denied making the release notes unavailable for no apparent reason.
