Title:
  Update manager does not update Synaptic's History

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

Bug description:
  Wanting to see which updates were recently installed on my system, I
  went to System: Administration: Synaptic Package Manager and did File:
  History.  The History window proudly proclaims it displays a "History
  of installed, upgraded and removed software packages".  I was
  flabbergasted to see it did NOT include the various updates that the
  Update Manager regularly inflicts upon my system.

  The rules lawyers will argue that "updated" is not in the Synaptic
  History job description.  Harrumph.  Since the Update manager offers
  not History of its own, this is completely unacceptable.  How am I
  supposed to get a list of recent changes to my system when something
  suddenly breaks?
