[Bug 1320683] Re: Update manager does not show all available updates

[Brian Murray]

If you don't want to install any updates that are phasing (not
distributed to all Ubuntu users) and the apt.conf line you've added will
ensure that you only get updates when they are fully phased.

However, if you want to install all updates regardless of their phasing
percentage (including those that have stopped phasing due to potential
regressions) then you'd want the following in you /etc/apt/apt.conf
file.

Update-Manager::Always-Include-Phased-Updates "True";

Don't confuse the fact that not every package manager supports phasing
with it being broken.
