Sure, a package never asked to reboot. IMO you shouldn't add crap like update-manager. The bad with such "tools" is, that people likely will do upgrades without taking care what the upgrades will do, so they never will learn what self-responsibility is and what software is needed for what task, they never will learn how to setup Linux userspace to their needs. This odd approach is new to Linux and completely against what Linux stands for. Regarding o this new approach my main distro for years is Arch Linux and I consider to completely drop other distros such as Xubuntu/Ubuntu Studio, that make this step in the completely wrong direction. Read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principle ! IOW don't add complex and buggy software that in addition is responsible for users who never will learn how to customize a Linux. Don't guess what's best for the users, but show them how they can decide on their own. It's a pity/shame that this approach infiltrates Linux. Don't use this tool or that tool to setup Linux, use an editor and edit this file and that file! Don't upgrade, because upgrades are available! Take a look at the packages and be aware what they are for and then decide what to do! Stop all this nonsense! Regards, Ralf PS: Again to Ubuntu Studio! Why using two sound servers in combination? PPS to both lists: What do you want provide, a less good fake of Microsoft and Apple or something better? Neither fish nor fowl is idiotic! Stay to the origin policy of Linux!
