Ok great. Thanks for reporting this. I am going to see if I can get it
"Wishlist" status as soon as possible. Marking "confirmed" as well.
** Description changed:
Binary package hint: update-manager
+
+ --------
+ Summary: "I'm proposing that as long as it's less than one hour ago that the
package information was updated, the message should update at 15-minute
intervals, with the first - that is, when it was less than 15 minutes ago that
the check occurred - reading "Your system is up to date. The package
information was just updated." When it's more than one hour ago, the current
behavior is indeed very appropriate."
+ --------
For the sake of clarification for the user, when the Update manager has
just updated the package information, I propose that it should read
"Your system is up to date. The package information was just updated."
This is just a papercut bug, but I'm guessing it would have people re-
checking the package information at more appropriate time intervals.
Also I would say it increases the perception of the Update manager's
user friendliness. The need to know a more precise time since the last
check decays with hours - being of bigger importance when the check
wasn't that long ago.
This message should also change every 15 minutes, and in that way be
even more helpful - "...was updated about 15 minutes ago." "...was
updated about half an hour ago." and "...was updated about 45 minutes
ago."
** Summary changed:
- Update manager should read "The package information was just updated" if it
was
+ Update manager should read "The package information was just updated" in 15
minute intervals for the first hour after an update.
** Changed in: update-manager (Ubuntu)
Status: Incomplete => Confirmed
