Bug description:
Hi,
Ubuntu 16.04 here w/ Unity
I sometimes have some notification about available update for my
system.
But icon for update manager never automatically shows in launcher - as it used to in previous ubuntu version. (a green background icon with an A on)
→ screenshot of expected behavior http://hpics.li/4fb6d59
After seeing the update notification in 16.04 one has to manually run
update-manager or synaptic.
Is this intended behavior ?

More than 3 months later can someone tell at least if this was intended behavior ?

Notifications spring and vanish so it's very easy for users not to see them and then run a non-updated system for long… It's a basic security matter.

2017-01-28 Today I've booted on my 16.04 I hadn't booted for at least
2 weeks, expecting some updates. After 2 hours running, absolutely no
warning any where about potential updates. So I ran synaptic and yes
many updates are available http://hpics.li/ca343ba
