Matthew, I like the idea of removing the second sentence altogether, so
I made a new patch and removed those second sentences. I also removed
the whole "is_unity_running()" thing. Some minor changes were also made,
like there was an occurence of "Ubuntu Linux" which I found totally
unnecessary as all other occurences say "Ubuntu", so that was changed to
only "Ubuntu". I hope my contribution with this patch is welcome to the
Ubuntu community.
Developers, if you please, review the patch and commit it if you find it
well done. Also, make sure that all the translators are going to be
informed about these changes, so that they will, too, accomodate their
translations accordingly. Thanks.
** Patch added: "3rd time's a charm :)"

Title:
update-manager misguiding text
Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
In Ubuntu 11.10 (currently the latest stable version of Ubuntu) I
found that the Update Manager has this misguiding text displayed in
its main window when and only when the updates are available. Below
"Software updates are available for your computer" it says this:
"If you don't want to install them now, choose "Update Manager" from
Applications later."
And what is wrong here? Well, Ubuntu doesn't have the "Applications"
menu anymore. Actually, the old desktop menus in Ubuntu are now long
gone, so please re-word this line of text. The place where the user
can choose to open the Update Manager later is in the menu that has a
"power" icon in the top-right of the screen. Point the user there in
the Update Manager when he/she has updates available. Thanks.
