       Status: New => Triaged

** Changed in: update-manager (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Wishlist

** Summary changed:

- Update Manager shows updates that can't be selected
+ Update Manager should give reason items cannot be selected in the GUI menu.

** Description changed:

+ ----------User Summary (Clipped from post 8)----------
+ If you click on a checkbox and it doesn't get selected, some sort of popup should appear saying "this item cannot be selected for this and that reason".
+ ----------------------------------------------------
+ 
  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.
