Thanks for the logs, I had a closer look at them now.

The log have dpkg runs at:

The time between the last runs (2009-03-31 and 2009-04-07) is according to 
pythons datetime:
6 days, 19:14:24 So we missed the 7 days time by some hours. 

This maybe a usability bug. update-notiifer just checks when the last apt/dpkg 
action was performed
and calcualtes the 7 days based on that. But from a user perspective installing 
a new software and
installing a update is something different so it may not be clear why 
update-manager does not appear 
in this situation. 

I will ask the design team for its opinion.

Thanks,
 Michael
