I think that's a bit blunt/rude but basically correct. Please find attached a patch which should set the example default which seemed sensible to me. This is my first patch in a while and first time with some of the new tools so please excuse any errors. I've not strengthened the Recommends gnome-packagekit to Depends because if gpk-update-viewer is missing the menu item will do nothing, but it did nothing before anyway!

Bug#928814: package-update-indicator: Install updates greyed out, never shows update notification
Package: package-update-indicator Version: 2.0-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? I stopped receiving update notifications, after about a month I checked with apt and pkcon get-updates, the system had 145 updates. I am running XFCE 4.12 on testing, the green update icon is always present, but it looks like it is not doing anything. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? I updated everything (and noticed the update icon never went away), then ran package-update-indicator --quit and restarted it, then downgraded a package, ran pkcon refresh, apt and packagekit show the update, the update icon is in the taskbar but it still had the "Install updates" option greyed out. Also, I started searching and found another bug report for this package and noticed that a "--debug" option exists, it is not in the manpage. This is what it shows: (package-update-indicator:2281): package-update-indicator-DEBUG: 17:24:01.531: property "update-command" set to "" (package-update-indicator:2281): package-update-indicator-DEBUG: 17:24:01.615: indicator icon: system-software-update, notification title: "", notification body: "" (package-update-indicator:2281): package-update-indicator-DEBUG: 17:24:01.620: backend: aptcc (package-update-indicator:2281): package-update-indicator-DEBUG: 17:24:01.620: roles: cancel;depends-on;get-details;get-files;get-packages;get-repo- list;required-by;get-update-detail;get-updates;install-files;install- packages;install-signature;refresh-cache;remove-packages;repo- enable;resolve;search-details;search-file;search-group;search-name;update- packages;what-provides;download-packages;get-old-transactions;repair- system;get-details-local;get-files-local;repo-remove (package-update-indicator:2281): package-update-indicator-DEBUG: 17:24:01.621: network-state: online (package-update-indicator:2281): package-update-indicator-DEBUG: 17:24:01.622: property "refresh-interval" set to 0 (package-update-indicator:2281): package-update-indicator-DEBUG: 17:24:01.622: property "use-mobile-connection" set to false (package-update-indicator:2281): package-update-indicator-DEBUG: 17:24:01.622: state initial -> up-to-date (package-update-indicator:2281): package-update-indicator-DEBUG: 17:24:01.622: indicator icon: system-software-update, notification title: "Up to Date", notification body: "The system is up to date."
