Another consequence of update-notifier not being aware of phased updates
is that update-manager may auto-launch telling you your system is up to
date.

This happens because update-notifier uses /usr/lib/update-notifier/apt-
check to see whether or not there are updates available to install.
However, apt-check does not take into consideration whether or not an
update is phased.  Then if update-notifier determines that updates are
available and update-notifier's auto-launch (of update-manager) is set
to true (the default), then update-manager will launch and inform you
that your system is up to date.
