I modified the title in a way such that it is usable and understandable to me as a developer (and for other developers) when it comes to actually fixing the bug. Additionally, the quantity of updates will always change and having a dynamic number in the bug title probably won't help people find this bug as they may be notified of 26 updates but then only see 23 in update-manager.
** Summary changed: - update-notifier says 29 updates available but Software Updater says just 8 + update-notifier notifies of phased-updates for which you may not be eligible ** Description changed: + Update-notifier displays X number of updates, but then when you launch + update-manager (done by choosing to install the updates) you are + presented with Y number of updates, where Y is less than X. This is + because update-notifier does not check to see if a package is under + going phasing and subsequently shows all the available updates even + though your system may not be selected to install them. + I've marked it as a security vulnerability. - ProblemType: Bug - DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 + ProblemType: BugDistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 Package: update-manager 1:0.186.2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.8.0-30.44-generic 3.8.13.6 Uname: Linux 3.8.0-30-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu8.3 Architecture: amd64 Date: Tue Sep 10 13:19:51 2013 GsettingsChanges: - b'com.ubuntu.update-manager' b'first-run' b'false' - b'com.ubuntu.update-manager' b'launch-time' b'1378815536' - b'com.ubuntu.update-manager' b'show-details' b'true' - b'com.ubuntu.update-manager' b'window-height' b'1079' - b'com.ubuntu.update-manager' b'window-width' b'680' + b'com.ubuntu.update-manager' b'first-run' b'false' + b'com.ubuntu.update-manager' b'launch-time' b'1378815536' + b'com.ubuntu.update-manager' b'show-details' b'true' + b'com.ubuntu.update-manager' b'window-height' b'1079' + b'com.ubuntu.update-manager' b'window-width' b'680' InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-11-28 (285 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release amd64 (20121017.1) MarkForUpload: True - PackageArchitecture: all - SourcePackage: update-manager + PackageArchitecture: allSourcePackage: update-manager UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to raring on 2013-05-14 (118 days ago) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1223321 Title: update-notifier notifies of phased-updates for which you may not be eligible To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-notifier/+bug/1223321/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
