Public bug reported:
I have "automatically check for updates" in Software & Updates set to
Never. This is not respected, since the software updater window pops up
regularly prompting about new updates.
Technically it could be that it's literally respected, since it's
possible that the updates shown to me are the result of some random
manual apt update command that was run by me a week earlier, but it's
hardly what I expect. I expect to never be bothered by a disruptive
popup (to put it mildly -- it's not a small window) when having set this
option to Never.
There are more options in Software & Updates, like what to do when there
are security/other updates, but none of those drop-down menus offer me
anything even remotely close to "do nothing", so I'm forced to resort to
the above option *just to not get disturbed on a schedule*.
I'm not interested in automatic updates of any kind, so that is not a
solution to not being disturbed.
