Yes, I am aware of the workaround. However, I figure that for every person who knows enough to do that, or to come here to file a bug report, there are probably hundreds or thousands of ordinary users who are seeing the same bug and don't know what to do about it, so I think it is still important for the developers to be aware of the bug and to fix it.
The weird thing is that overnight last night, I finally received the upgrade notification on the laptop which had this problem. I did nothing at all to cause it to appear, but it looks like today's daily status check for some reason was informed that an upgrade is available, whereas none of the status checks in the past week have done so. -- [intrepid]: no upgrade notification for jaunty received, manual attempt says nothing to upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367495 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to update-notifier-kde in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
