GNOME isn't refreshing the packagekit cache (syslog shows PackageKit 'get-updates' but never a 'refresh'). You still have to configure Apt::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists manually (and hope your internet connection is available at the right time :), or you never see any updates in gnome.
I noticed the bug on Jessie stable - I think it was the same in Wheezy stable too. I think people didn't see the bug when they upgraded earlier systems, because the old update-notifier configured Apt::Periodic and that got left over.
