Public bug reported: Binary package hint: update-notifier
Discussion on ubuntu-users from post https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives /ubuntu-users/2009-August/193694.html shows a situation where a set of security patches were released and available in both jaunty-security and jaunty-updates. After the packages appeared in BOTH archives, and before they were installed, reports such as the message-of-the-day would report 6 packages can be updated. 12 updates are security updates. It appears that the code to check for the presence of masked security updates is not catering for this case. Possible fix attached. The patch is against karmic, but the same code appears in the jaunty version, at about line 107, rather than 140. Because of changes to the enclosing loop, the indentation is wrong for application of this patch to the 0.76.2 code used in jaunty. ** Affects: update-notifier (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- apt-check.py counts security updates twice if pkg in -updates and -security https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/413885 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
