[Bug 517449] Re: Notify outstanding updates at logout/shutdown

[oger000]

After two years of inactivity it looks like the inital idea is too complicated (or there is no much need for this), so I would suggest that the update-manager only change the color (may be to orange) and the available menuitems of the indicator-applet if unsupplied updates are persent.
As the update-manager does this already in the case that the system has to be restarted after an update maybe this is more easy?

Title:
  Notify outstanding updates at logout/shutdown

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

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  The Update Manager, by default, alerts me of updates when I first
  login. However, this is usually not a good time for me to update my
  system. Unfortunately, by the time I am shutting down my computer or
  logging out, I have forgotten to apply the updates. It would be great
  if the Update Manager could have a setting (possibly on by default)
  that would cause it to remind a user that there are updates available
  when the person goes to either logout or shutdown. This notification
  could be presented with a timer, like is present in 9.10 when shutting
  down, so that if there is no response within 60 seconds, the computer
  would logout/shutdown. If a user were to select to update their system
  at this time, Update Manager could apply the updates, then
  logout/shutdown the computer.

  DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10
