Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: update-manager-core
Trying to upgrade some machines deep inside a network. I have to use an
HTTP proxy so do-release-upgrade can get do it's network thing. This is
what happens:
# export http_proxy="172.16.1.1:8888"
# do-release-upgrade
Checking for a new ubuntu release
Failed Upgrade tool signature
Failed Upgrade tool
Done downloading
extracting '/tmp/tmpiEu3Yi/gutsy.tar.gz'
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/do-release-upgrade", line 45, in <module>
fetcher.run()

Using wget I am able to retrieve the files fine via the proxy:
# export http_proxy="172.16.2.2:18888"
# wget -nv http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release
16:01:05 URL:http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release [2724/2724] ->
"meta-release" [1]
# wget -nv

[535999/535999] -> "gutsy.tar.gz" [1]
I've also successfully used do-release-upgrade on a similarly configured
machines which didn't need to use an http proxy. It appears something
about the proxy support is busted.
