a friends machine has an automatic proxy set up in system->preferences->network proxy.
update-manager claimed did not show the upgrade from gutsy to hardy, even after checking for updates, and using the -c -d flags. neither did the do-release-upgrade script. there was no error message or warning. after selecting 'direct connection to internet' (the machine only use the proxy so that it can access IP restricted services), the update- manager found the update. ** Changed in: update-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- update-manager does not correctly interpret gnome proxy configuration [gutsy] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173050 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
