** 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'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.
