** Description changed: - I'm trying to upgrade from natty to oneiric using do-release-upgrade. The problem is that I have internet only through socks using a local shh tunnel connection created by using: ssh -g -D 8888 user@ip. The tunnel works great with firefox and using tsocks or proxychains with other applications, also works with do-release-upgrade at first stage, but after the "downloading upgrade tool" it clears the screen and seems like a call to apt-get or synaptic (or is it aptitude?) and all the connections tries keeps failing. + I'm trying to upgrade from natty to oneiric using do-release-upgrade.

I've tried replacing apt-get in /usr/bin with a script that invokes first proxychains with parameters apt-get and $@, but that doesn't work either. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11488156#post11488156 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.04 Package: update-manager 1:0.150.5 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.38-8.42-generic 2.6.38.2 Uname: Linux 2.6.38-8-generic i686 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Architecture: i386 Date: Tue Nov 29 10:49:31 2011 GConfNonDefault: - /apps/update-manager/check_new_release_ignore= - /apps/update-manager/first_run=false - /apps/update-manager/show_details=true - /apps/update-manager/window_size=(1600,876) + /apps/update-manager/check_new_release_ignore= + /apps/update-manager/first_run=false + /apps/update-manager/show_details=true + /apps/update-manager/window_size=(1600,876) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat" - Release i386 (20101007) PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: - LANGUAGE=es_PY:en - LANG=es_PY.UTF-8 - SHELL=/bin/bash + LANGUAGE=es_PY:en + LANG=es_PY.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: update-manager UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to natty on 2011-11-29 (0 days ago) + + See also bug 651229.
