I have had a similar problem during a Feisty to Gutsy upgrade using apt-
cacher as proxy (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-
manager/+bug/113658 ), but it's a generic proxy problem.  If Canonical
are serious about the corporate market, where proxy servers are very
common, they need to fix this sort of bug...  Having to hack around on
the command line is fine for me since I've used Linux for ages, but
users new to Linux will probably just give up or have to use the apt-get
upgrade method, which of course can lead to breakage that requires
*more* expertise to fix.

Please fix this bug and the 113658 bug.  Your corporate users will thank
you!
