(Get the code!)
I fixed this problem by adding this feature to gksu. If a application is run via gksu, it will set the http_proxy environment. Most applications honor it (among them apt-get, synaptic, update-manager).
Because synaptic is run via gksu (both in the menu and when run from update-notifier) I consider this bug fixed. Please reopen if you still have problems (after updating to the latest gksu 1.3.7-0ubuntu5).
Cheers,
Michael
