Public bug reported: On login, occasionally I see:
proxy 'http://[<ipv6 address redacted>]:3128/' looks invalid I tracked this down to /etc/update-motd.d/91-release-upgrade which is calling "/usr/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/check-new-release -q" when a cache is stale, and I can reproduce this every time by running "sudo usr/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/check-new-release -q". It looks like UpdateManager/Core/utils.py has an incomplete regexp "http://\w+";, which does not catch the square brackets used around an IPv6 address. Presumably the regexp needs extending. In my case I'm specifying my proxy by IP because I use Zeroconf names (using mdns) but in this case am using it inside a container that is bridged so .local names do not resolve there. This presumably means that it ignores my proxy definition too, though I haven't tested this. This is with update-manager-core 1:16.04.3 but it looks like the source from 1:16.10.1 is still affected. ** Affects: update-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1587204 Title: Spams motd with "proxy ... looks invalid" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/1587204/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
