** Description changed: + url_downloadable in lucid is used to detect old-release.ubuntu.com + upgrades and to figure out the best location to downolaod the release- + upgrader tarball. Failure on this is not critical, just leads to using + archive.ubuntu.com instead of the selected mirror when a proxy is given. + Still worth fixing for the old-release.ubuntu.com upgrade case. + + TEST CASE (lucid): + 1. use lucid and ensure you use a country proxy like de.archive.ubuntu.com + 2. /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades to "prompt=normal" + 3. run "do-release-upgrade -d" to get to maverick + 4. watch the proxy log (e.g. /var/log/squid/access.log) that archive.ubuntu.com is used to download http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/dist-upgrader-all/current/maverick.tar.gz + 5. install update-manager from lucid-proposed + 6. repeat 3 + 7. verify in the proxy log that de.archive.ubuntu.com (or what mirror you selected) is used now + Binary package hint: update-manager-core Description: Ubuntu 9.04 Release: 9.04 Version: 1:0.111.7 url_downloadable in /usr/lib/python2.6/dist- packages/UpdateManager/Core/utils.py does not respect a http proxy. Therefore sudo do-release-update -d hangs whilst checking if the UpdateToolSig is downloadable.
