Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-manager

In Ubuntu Natty, update-manager marks any packages that it upgraded as
"Manually installed"; it didn't in Maverick and before.

I don't know if this is actually a bug or in fact the new expected
behaviour, but it loses information about the state of the package
database. I generally mark almost all packages on my system as
automatically installed; since Natty, I always have to change that flag
on a lot of packages after using update-manager.
