Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-manager

I'm behind a firewall which requires me to setup a ftp proxy. I did this
in gnome but left http proxy empty, as there is no http proxy required
to connect to the internet. Though gnome sets
system/http_proxy/use_http_proxy and leaves system/http_proxy/host
empty, so update-manager tries to configure a proxy and fails due to no
host given.

I'm proposing to change UpdateManager.py , method init_proxy (line 433)
from >if proxy:< into >if proxy and host != "":<.
