Title:
  update-manager crashed with timeout in readline(): timed out

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “update-manager” source package in Precise:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  This timeout is one of the top errors on errors.ubuntu.com and is afffecting lots of people.

  [Test Case]
  There is no trivial way to reproduce this as it only happens with a flaky internet connection.  Without an internet connection update-manager errors in a different way.  A regression test should be sufficient.

  update-manager crashed trying to read the meta-release file.  This may
  be caused due to local network issues, regardless update-manager
  should not crash in this case.
