Having same problem.

Additionally, the icon is way too big.

Title:
  update-manager/-notifier: falsely claims that update information is
  outdated

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

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  In Karmic.

  There is a notification-area icon (from update-notifier?) which claims
  that “The update information is outdated”  This is not correct; I’ve
  (manually) updated the package list earlier today, using aptitude.

  In addition, when I click on the icon, update-manager is of launched.
  It claims “The package information was last updated 8 days ago.”  This
  is of course also incorrect.

  In Software Sources, I have “Automatic updates” set to check for
  updates daily.

  If I click “Check” in update manager, it will report that “The package
  information was last updated less than one hour ago.” but the icon
  will eventually return, despite the fact that I manually check for
  updates approximately daily.
