I think it is a mistake to require sign-in just to *check* for updates. That might lead to you going to the trouble of signing in (or even registering an Ubuntu One account), only to see that no updates are available. Signing in to *install* updates would be much more palatable.
Meanwhile, though, I've updated the spec assuming that sign-in is necessary to check for updates. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareUpdates?action=diff&rev2=153&rev1=152> ** Changed in: ubuntu-system-settings (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Triaged ** Changed in: ubuntu-system-settings (Ubuntu) Assignee: Matthew Paul Thomas (mpt) => (unassigned) ** Description changed: + ubuntu-system-settings 0.1+14.04.20140328-0ubuntu1 [modified: + usr/share/ubuntu/settings/system/qml-plugins/system- + update/PageComponent.qml], Ubuntu 14.04 + I talked to gatox and according to him credentials are only needed for clicks apps updates. 1.
