We'd take that very seriously. I'm absolutely certain now that the window did pop as it was supposed to, but I had dismissed it without seeing what it was. This goes back to one of my major complaints about this new notification method: Once dismissed, the window was gone for good, and I had no further reminders of the updates.
The window popped again for me today, with new updates. This time, I heeded it. Unfortunately, I had to stop everything I was doing so that I could service the update window - this in lieu of dismissing the window again and forgetting about the updates. I stand by my assertion that there was absolutely nothing wrong with the old method of popping an icon in the notification tray, and would like to see it re-implemented. If needed, have the icon pop along with an accompanying OSD-notification that "New Updates are Ready to Install", flash the icon until the OSD goes away, then leave the icon persistent until the updates are installed. I don't see how this could have ever been considered broken to begin with. -- [Jaunty] Update Notifier icon would provide useful status information https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/332945 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
