Bug#489954: update-notifier: cron script does not use a correct test
Thanks for the report, if you agree, I'm changing the bug severity to minor. Strange, I wasn't notified by bug tracker about your reply! If you wish to change severity I don't object, but to me personally it still classifies as an important bug since the howto and man pages instructs users to use this script if they want to be able to have the full power of update-notifier. -- Hilsen/Regards Michael Rasmussen Get my public GnuPG keys: michael at rasmussen dot cc http://keyserver.veridis.com:11371/pks/lookup?op=getsearch=0xD3C9A00E mir at datanom dot net http://keyserver.veridis.com:11371/pks/lookup?op=getsearch=0xE501F51C mir at miras dot org http://keyserver.veridis.com:11371/pks/lookup?op=getsearch=0xE3E80917 -- Don't stop with your first draft. - The Elements of Programming Style (Kernighan Plaugher) signature.asc Description: PGP signature
