 Yes. Recently, Michiel has changed his website, and the update-manager 
 website has go down, but I talk to him and he'll put on the website 
 more quickly possible.

Digging through Google I've found 
http://higgs.djpig.de/ubuntu/www/hoary/gnome/update-notifier
and 
https://oops.kerneljanitors.org/repos/upgrade-notifier/

This looks like it needs to be run as root, does it?

 Yes, it's similar. Take a look at ubuntu people. They have nice 
 screenshots!

I've been unable to find decent screenshots, but if it needs to run as root 
I'd rather take apt-watch.

Javier

No, it doesn't.

 This is the GNOME apt update manager. It checks for updates and 
 lets the user choose which to install.

apt-cache show apt-watch

What's the difference between this and synaptic, besides the GNOME
libs?
