It does say the size of how much data will be downloaded. But no details of what this download is or what changes will be made if I click Install Now. This occurred most recently on 21 July, when I had one auto-removable kernel and the following updates were available in principle - $ apt list --upgradable Listing... Done libnss-systemd/bionic-updates 237-3ubuntu10.2 amd64 [upgradable from: 237-3ubuntu10] libpam-systemd/bionic-updates 237-3ubuntu10.2 amd64 [upgradable from: 237-3ubuntu10] libsystemd0/bionic-updates 237-3ubuntu10.2 amd64 [upgradable from: 237-3ubuntu10] libudev1/bionic-updates 237-3ubuntu10.2 amd64 [upgradable from: 237-3ubuntu10] systemd/bionic-updates 237-3ubuntu10.2 amd64 [upgradable from: 237-3ubuntu10] systemd-sysv/bionic-updates 237-3ubuntu10.2 amd64 [upgradable from: 237-3ubuntu10] udev/bionic-updates 237-3ubuntu10.2 amd64 [upgradable from: 237-3ubuntu10] Expected results: Depending on whether I "should" receive the avilable phased updates or not, I would have expected that... A) ... if I should have received some of the available phased updates, Software Updater should present them to me, and offer to remove the auto-removable kernels. B) ... if I should not receive any of the available phased updates yet, Software Updater should either i) only offer to remove the auto-removable kernels, OR ii) just say "The software on this computer is up to date." ubuntuforums thread (which includes a screenshot): https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2394240 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/1783023/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~group.of.nepali.translators Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~group.of.nepali.translators More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
