Defining the URL opener in one module and trying to use it another still resulted in namespace type errors (Global name 'changelog_opener' not found, etc.). One line change to UpdateManager/DistSpecific/changelog.py seems to work:
#connection = urllib2.urlopen(url) connection = urllib2.build_opener().open(url) I'm not sufficiently conversant with Python and the u-m code to either implement a second opener without proxy support which would be built once then used globally as needed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
