Hi Igor, thanks, btw, for taking the time to create this bug report,

This long-open bug report seems to be unique to your proxy, which I
suspect is misconfigured in some way, so I'm going to mark it back to
Incomplete.

If you can post a full tcpdump of the communication between your server
and the proxy server, that might help identify whether or not it is a
problem with the way apt does HTTP, or whether it is your server
possibly mangling HTTP headers improperly.

To generate the tcpdump, first make sure tcpdump is installed, then run
this:

tcpdump -n -s 1500 -w proxy.tcpdump host ip.address.of.proxy and port XX

where XX is the port your server communicates with the proxy on. If you
have a transparent proxy, you'll want to just do host
security.ubuntu.com.

Leave that running while you see the negative affects, then when you are
done, use 'ctrl-C' to cancel it, and upload proxy.tcpdump to this bug
report.

Please make sure this only contains publicly accessible communication,
*or* mark the bug private before posting such a file.

As I suggested at the beginning, marking Incomplete. Feel free to return
the status to 'New' after posting a tcpdump. Then somebody can take a
look and confirm that it is the proxy's fault.
