I have a fresh install of 10.10, and I have the network proxy configured system-wide. Everything can get to the web just peachy, but Update Manager can't download any updates - I get the usual 'failed to fetch blah blah' error that apps throw when they don't have a proxy.

I can't, however, seem to find any additional settings for UM that would make it use a different proxy, or not use the system proxy. :scratch: I can install shit through apt just fine, but I'd like to use the GUI.

Where's the proxy config for update manager?

Note: global http_proxy is correct, and apt.conf is empty. :scratch: Where the fuck is the setting for this thing? :lol:

:lol: I ended up using the terminal. I've had mixed results with apt, and this machine is going on a DMZ so it's going to be subject to a bajillion patches and scans once a month.

A reboot ended up solving the proxy issue. Kind of uncommon for Linux, but hey.
