If you don't find the updates in Software Updater, it is because of the phased updates, which means that not everyone will get the updates at the same time to avoid mass regressions for all users. More info about phased updates is here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PhasedUpdates. However, you will receive the updates eventually a little later.
If you want to override phased updates and update everything immediately, do this in terminal: sudo apt update sudo apt full-upgrade However, that is _not_ recommended. Better rely on Software Updater. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1573408 Title: GNOME Software does not install third-party .deb packages Status in GNOME Software: Fix Released Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in gnome-software source package in Xenial: Fix Released Bug description: Impact installing local debs from nautilus doesn't work Test case download a deb and double click on it nautilus Regression potential the changes are restoring a feature that was working, should regression other parts of the code ----------------- Unlike previous versions of Ubuntu Unity, I'm unable to install the google-talk-plugin in Ubuntu 16.04, where it (the deb) can be downloaded here: https://www.google.com/tools/dlpage/hangoutplugin After downloading, I open the deb file from Firefox and it launches the gnome-software package (used in Unity now). The first time I click the install button in gnome-software, I notice a strange repositioning of the layout, but nothing else happens.
