Thanks for the additional information. I added a better message into the notification area so that its clearer that a failed repository triggers the message too. ** Changed in: update-notifier (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Fix Committed -- Update-manager tray icon incorrectly complains about stale package information https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/243876 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for your bugreport. Could you please give me the full terminal output of: $ sudo apt-get update $ echo $? $ ls -l /var/lib/apt/periodic/ The way its implemented is that if one repository fails to update then the file is not touched. The output of the commands hopefully gives us a idea what goes wrong.

[Bug 243876] Re: Update-manager tray icon incorrectly complains about stale package information
Thanks for looking into this. Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be anything wrong now. When I was trying to track down this bug, I noticed that one of my repos was giving a 404 error, so I commented that repo out. Additionally, since I'd copied my sources.list from the old machine to the new one, some of the keys weren't installed. So, when I was troubleshooting this, I installed the keys, so that aptitude updated without any errors. Yet, after several updates, I was still experiencing the problem. That's when I reported this bug. Several days later, I noticed that update-manager had stopped complaining, and that /var/lib/apt/periodic/update-success-stamp had been touched. One other thing that might or might not be relevant: I use apt-cacher on my network to save bandwidth. I don't know if it can cause these types of problems or not.
