Title:
  update-manager does not install packages

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  1. update-manager fails to install packages (the check button works as expected - new/upgrades are found and listed)
  2. apt-get dist-upgrade works for command-line installation of packages

  I'm running Natty 11.04 with all the latest package updates.
