Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: software-properties-gtk

Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 8.04.1
Release:        8.04
Codename:       hardy

Ubuntu 8.04 hardy heron amd64
software-properties-gtk:
  Installed: 0.63ubuntu1
  Candidate: 0.63ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 0.63ubuntu1 0
        500 http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

The bug is related to downloading, not installing.

1. Check system > administration > software sources > updates > check daily and 
choose "install all security updates without confirmation"
2. Check hardy-updates and hardy-proposed

This downloads all updates, even the ones that are not security-related.
However this is not mentioned in the selection I made. It should either
download only the security-related packages or mention it in the
description.
