Title:
  Notification should be independent of auto-download and auto-install

Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  1)
  $ lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 11.04
  Release:	11.04

  2)
  ii  update-manager 1:0.150.2      GNOME application that manages apt updates

  3)
  See attached screenshot:
   - I want all updates to be downloaded automatically
   - I want security updates to be installed automatically
   - I want to be notified when there are non-security updates

  Basically the simplest thing to do IMO would be to make notifications
  turn-on-and-offable via a checkbox independent of the three choices
  you're providing.

  4)
  I selected the "download in background" option and was never notified of updates. Now I've gone back to the "notify" option because then at least I know what's happening.
