[Bug 470273] [NEW] update-notifier-kde fails to use proxy

[Riku Voipio]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-notifier-kde

Update from jaunty to karmic fails.

Update-manager-kde asks if I want to update to latest "9.10" release.
Selected ok, and upgrade hangs.

strace shows:

connect(11, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(80),
sin_addr=inet_addr("193.166.3.5")}, 16^C <unfinished ...>

proxy has been configured in the "http_proxy" env variable, gconf key
and kde control center, /etc/apt/apt.conf,  yet update-manager chose to
connect directly to internet.

normal security updates via update-manager-kde / apt-get install
commends work fine.

packages installed on jaunty:
