But where is this behaviour documented? update-notifier does not have a man-page and /usr/share/doc/update-notifier/README does not explain it ("notify only for security updates"). -- Ullrich Horlacher Server und Virtualisierung Rechenzentrum IZUS/TIK E-Mail: horlac...@tik.uni-stuttgart.de Universitaet Stuttgart Tel:++49-711-68565868 Allmandring 30aFax:++49-711-682357 70550 Stuttgart (Germany) WWW:http://www.tik.uni-stuttgart.de/ REF:<20160322193710.30957.3375.mal...@soybean.canonical.com> -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1560411 Title: update-notifier does not show new updates in xubuntu 16.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-notifier/+bug/1560411/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1560411] Re: update-notifier does not show new updates in xubuntu 16.04
Thanks for the report. The debug output shows that this is working as designed: (update-notifier:4752): update-DEBUG: /usr/lib/update-notifier/apt-check returned 50 (security: 0) [...] (update-notifier:4752): update-DEBUG: interval_days: 7 [...] (update-notifier:4752): update-DEBUG: last_launch from /var/log/dpkg.log: 1458573874 (Mon Mar 21 16:24:34 2016) You have zero pending security updates. When there are no security updates, the behavior of update-notifier is to only prompt for updates once every 7 days. However, the timestamps on your logs show that you have updated packages on the system only a day ago. So even though new packages are available, you would not be prompted to install them for another 6 days, in order to keep the update-notifier nagging to a minimum. ** Changed in: update-notifier (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1560411 Title: update-notifier does not show new updates in xubuntu 16.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-notifier/+bug/1560411/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
