Thanks for the bugreport and the patch. The patch is not ideal because
urllib2 always uses GET (for http) and RETR (for ftp). This is not ideal
as it will cause more traffic than needed, especially when looking for a
big File like Packages.gz. This is why the (more complicated) version
with httplib/ftplib is used. In trunk this should be fixed and proxy
support should be fully working.
** Changed in: update-manager (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => Fix Released
