Package: update-notifier Version: 0.42.12-3 Severity: normal I'm using update-notifier on several machines, and it works on some, but not on others. The problem is it doesn't update, so it never notifies. Well, actually it notifies shortly after I manually update the database, which is a bit too late. ;-)
I didn't really look into it, but I think the problem is that I'm running apt-proxy, and so my sources.list has a line: deb http://localhost:9999/debian/ unstable main I'm guessing the ":9999" is the problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages update-notifier depends on: ii dbus-1-utils 1.0.2-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii gksu 2.0.0-1 graphical frontend to su ii hal 0.5.8.1-6.1 Hardware Abstraction Layer ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.17-1 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-0 1.12.4-2 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libbonobo2-0 2.14.0-3 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libbonoboui2-0 2.14.0-5 The Bonobo UI library ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.2.4-4 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdbus-1-3 1.0.2-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.71-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libfontconfig1 2.4.2-1.2 generic font configuration library ii libgconf2-4 2.16.1-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.0-4 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.12.6-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-keyring0 0.6.0-3 GNOME keyring services library ii libgnome2-0 2.16.0-2 The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomecanvas2-0 2.14.0-2 A powerful object-oriented display ii libgnomeui-0 2.14.1-2 The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgnomevfs2-0 1:2.14.2-6 GNOME virtual file-system (runtime ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.20-5 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libhal1 0.5.8.1-6.1 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libice6 1:1.0.1-2 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libnotify1 0.4.3-1 sends desktop notifications to a n ii liborbit2 1:2.14.4-1 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpango1.0-0 1.14.8-5 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpopt0 1.10-3 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libsm6 1:1.0.1-3 X11 Session Management library ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-5 X11 client-side library ii libxau6 1:1.0.1-2 X11 authorisation library ii libxcursor1 1.1.7-4 X cursor management library ii libxext6 1:1.0.1-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxfixes3 1:4.0.1-5 X11 miscellaneous 'fixes' extensio ii libxi6 1:1.0.1-4 X11 Input extension library ii libxinerama1 1:1.0.1-4.1 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxml2 2.6.27.dfsg-1 GNOME XML library ii libxrandr2 2:1.1.0.2-5 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.1-3 X Rendering Extension client libra ii notification-daemon 0.3.5-1+b1 a daemon that displays passive pop ii python 2.4.4-2 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-apt 0.6.20 Python interface to libapt-pkg ii update-manager 0.42.2ubuntu22-11 GNOME application that manages sof update-notifier recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
