IIRC you'll need dpkg-ftp from hamm to get the ftp method in dselect to
work with an authenticated proxy.  But that's a catch-22 if you are trying
to use the ftp method to upgrade to hamm.

You could try to get the dpkg-ftp from hamm manually and install that,
but the feasibility of that depends on it not depending on a lot of
hamm-only packages.

In any case should you take a look at:

before upgrading.
