[Bug 907201] [NEW] Update Manager shows updates that can't be selected

[matteo sisti sette]

Public bug reported:

Update Manager shows four available updates under "Release Update".
The checkbox next to the title "Release Updates" itself is checked, but the checkbox next to the four items under it are all unchecked and I can't check them. If I click on them nothing happens.

Below it says "There are no updates to install".

If these are updates to packages that are not installed, they shouldn't
be shown. If they can't be installed for some reason, an error message
should be shown telling the reason.
