[Bug 356152] Re: update-manager doesn't show updates, even after 1 week

[Brian Murray]

Hello Jane, or anyone else affected,

Accepted update-notifier into xenial-proposed. The package will build
now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-
notifier/3.168.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

  This report is not a duplicate of bug #332945.

  I upgraded to Jaunty beta on Wed 25 March. According to the desired
  behaviour described in bug #332945 and elsewhere, update-manager
  should notify me at least once a week to tell me about updates.  I
  have had no notification since I upgraded 13 days ago (and have not
  installed any updates since Beta).
