[Bug 367495] Re: [intrepid]: no upgrade notification for jaunty received, manual attempt says nothing to upgrade

I see that in karmic I don't ever get any kind of notification of updates: I have to manually start synaptic each day to see if any updates are available. So I have a bet with myself that when lucid comes out, I won't receive any kind of notification about that either. -- [intrepid]: no upgrade notification for jaunty received, manual attempt says nothing to upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367495 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to update-notifier-kde in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

Hi, I am one of the thousands ordinary users. Running kubuntu 64 bit 8.10. /etc/lsb-release shows what posted by other users. No notification about 9.04. update-notifier-kde -u says no new upgrades available I could download the cd image and do the manual installation...but is there any solution? thanks -- [intrepid]: no upgrade notification for jaunty received, manual attempt says nothing to upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367495 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to update-notifier-kde in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

[Bug 367495] Re: [intrepid]: no upgrade notification for jaunty received, manual attempt says nothing to upgrade
Yes, I am aware of the workaround. However, I figure that for every person who knows enough to do that, or to come here to file a bug report, there are probably hundreds or thousands of ordinary users who are seeing the same bug and don't know what to do about it, so I think it is still important for the developers to be aware of the bug and to fix it. The weird thing is that overnight last night, I finally received the upgrade notification on the laptop which had this problem. I did nothing at all to cause it to appear, but it looks like today's daily status check for some reason was informed that an upgrade is available, whereas none of the status checks in the past week have done so. -- [intrepid]: no upgrade notification for jaunty received, manual attempt says nothing to upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367495 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to update-notifier-kde in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

Naïvely thinking out loud here (which is probably not welcome, but I'm not happy at not being able to upgrade and I want to try to move this along)... It seems to me that some condition is tested to determine whether the upgrade notification is displayed. For some reason that condition appears to be false when it should be true. Do we know what that condition is? Perhaps then we could work back to figure out *why* it's false. -- [intrepid]: no upgrade notification for jaunty received, manual attempt says nothing to upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367495 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Additional info that may or may not be relevant: The day of the jaunty release was the first time that I had used this computer in a couple of months.

I am out of ideas as to how to convince the system that intrepid is online upgradeable to jaunty. Someone had suggested reinstalling update-notifier-kde. I tried that but it made no difference (which makes sense, since I think it's just doing its job: reporting correctly that as far as the system is concerned, nothing needs updating). -- [intrepid]: no upgrade notification for jaunty received, manual attempt says nothing to upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367495 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
