** Description changed: Binary package hint: software-properties-gtk I've set the automatic updates radio button to "install security updates without confirmation". - Now, after many automatic upgrades i find that my ubuntu system is to be - rebooted. + Now, after almost every automatic upgrade i find that my ubuntu system + is to be rebooted. This is quite annoying me, because it leaves me back to the windows days, when I had to reboot windows almost daily beacuse of freezes or things not working well. Now, while my system is quite robust, I'm in the same situation for a different reason. Reboot as soon as possible! I intend that this reboot messages are mostly due to kernel security fixes, but my system is a standalone one and I'm behind a robust router and firewall, so that I'm not exposed to attacks, and so I'm not in the need of installing all the security updates immediately. I'd appreciate if update-manager gave me the possibility to upgrade only those packages whose upgrade doesn't require a system reboot. This perhaps could be accomplished very easily mantaining a file with the list of patterns that expands to packages that need reboot when upgraded. One more automatic updates radio button would be required in software- properties-gtk, saying: "Install reboot-safe security updates without confirmation", while the 1st option should become: "install all security updates without confirmation"
