Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-manager

The update manager showed the new version 10.04 LTS being available.
Pressing the "Upgrade" button seemed to freeze it. In wireshark I saw
the upgrade-manager to try to directly to connect to a external host.
But my machine is connected to the internet only by way of a proxy
(without auth). And the proxy is set up systemwide AFAIS correctly
("normal" updates work like a charme).

I "forgot" to kill one upgrade-manager instance. And now, two hours
later, the upgrade asked for the administrative password and seems to do
it's work - with now using the proxy for downloading the packages as
expected.

It seems I'm not the only one suffering this problem, see
