[Bug 1161012] Re: Clamav package adds proxy to config on install and update

[Robie Basak]

Thank you for the analysis, Sean. I think this explains the problem. It
looks like the init_proxy() function is run unconditionally by update-
manager when it starts, so any maintainer scripts spawned by update-
manager are incorrectly being given an http(s)_proxy environment
variable in this case.

Adding a task for update-manager since this seems to be a bug in update-
manager.

Title:
  Clamav package adds proxy to config on install and update

Status in clamav package in Ubuntu:
  Expired
Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The clamav package adds a proxy config to the files when using an apt
  caching proxy. Such as using apt-cacher-ng.

  Since this proxy is meant strictly for apt only, but is configured for
  clamav, freshclaim fails to download updates cause it's not using a
  real http proxy. This requires removing the proxy config from clam
  config file after each update is installed.
