  software center/software updater/apt-get doesn't use proxy
  authentication info and gets no internet access

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Opinion
Status in software-center package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  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.
