I see. Hmmm, i googled a bit but found no info. I'd suggest you file a
but launchpad for the missing logfile. I have searched there and found
none: http://tinyurl.com/lawrh
I think keeping no log (or no log that can be found; there isn't even a
man page for update-manager) for changes done to the system qualifies as
a bug, the worst that can happen is that someone tells you where it
is :)

Good luck. You might want to try to use Synaptic (which definitely keeps
a history) or aptitude (which keeps a log file) for the action for which
you used update-manager last time.
