[Bug 651229] Re: update manager doesn't use proxy authentication info and gets no internet access

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: update-manager
- 
  System has internet access via a proxy server with authentication.
  All info is set in "System/Preferences/Network Proxy" and applied system wide.
  Update manager reports a "407" when trying to download.
  Firefox hasn't any problems using the system defaults.
  As we all know, synaptic has got its own proxy preferences. That works and this is the only way for updating the system.
