Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
## Description ##
During first steps of installing, ubiquity provides a "Download updates
while installing" checkbox. I don't know what this option was supposed
to do (simply download updated .deb files in apt cache or automatically
install those files too), but restarting the system after a fresh
installation neither package updates were applied, nor .deb files were
downloaded and cached.
Simply, Update Manager shows X packages to update, and clicking the
Update button it downloads and installs them.
So I suppose
a) checkbox label is wrong (should be "Check for updates while installing")
b) download (and apply) updates feature doesn't work
## Steps to Reproduce ##
-- perform a fresh install (for instance a new virtual machine)
-- check "Download updates while installing"
-- reboot the system
-- launch Update Manager
## Current Result ##
N updates are available to install, if you choose to apply, all packages
will downoaded
## Expected Result ##
Updates should automatically downloaded or applied during operating
system installation
