Hey, I have run it manually now and it worked! It says "Your software is
up to date. However, there is (...) 13.04 available" and leave me
upgrade.

So the key must be here:
> You are up-to-date otherwise right? It won't prompt you if you have updates 
> available.

In past releases, when I upgraded e.g. from 11.10 to 12.04, or from 10.10 to 
11.04, I didn't have to manually run Software Updater. It would pop up 
automatically when updates where available, and I'm almost sure it DID prompt 
to upgrade even if there were updates available. IF not, then it showed it 
after installing available updates for the current release. I never have to do 
it manually, as in "let's run Software Updater to see whether the next major 
release is available". I always saw it when it automatically popped up, as in 
"Oh, look! There is also a new major release available!".
And that's how it should work.
It makes sense that it does, but then, AFTER installing the available updates, 
it should prompt for upgrading.
