I digged into documentation of PK and found in /usr/share/doc/packagekit/README.Debian
> The following components of PackageKit aren't shipped in the packages: > - cron job: APT does this already, no need for doubling the functionality > > The following components of PackageKit aren't shipped in the packages: > - cron job: APT does this already, no need for doubling the functionality However purging update-notifier-common also removed these configuration files: /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10periodic /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/15update-stamp So I took them from Wheezy and copied them to Jessi GREAT! And Updates are notified immediately as they are available and not after next reboot! Those 2 files should be included in pk-update-icon or PK itself: /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10periodic APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists "1"; APT::Periodic::Download-Upgradeable-Packages "0"; APT::Periodic::AutocleanInterval "0"; /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/15update-stamp APT::Update::Post-Invoke {"touch /var/lib/apt/periodic/update-success-stamp 2>/dev/null || true";}; But as stated in the header: the network-manager issue remains as a bug! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
