Title:
  update-manager failes to install kernel security update

Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Update-manager, which unaccountably appears on the screen labelled
  'software updater', told me that a security update was available for
  the kernel (Ubuntu Security Notice USN-2667-1).  When I tried to
  install it the progress window showed, but quickly closed without
  explanation.

  In order to install the security update I had to do it from the
  command line, using dist-upgrade.

  In the past I have always been able to install security updates with
  'software updater'.
