On my freshly-updated Kubuntu system, I can now report a difference
between a plain fglrx install and an fglrx-updates install. A plain
install completes properly, while an install of "-updates" still fails.
The downloaded packages can still be installed by hand, and work
properly, so it is only jockey that is failing.
Output from jockey-kde for an fglrx-updates installation attempt:
ERROR:root:Could not find any typelib for AppIndicator3
