dORSY, I don't remember posting a work-around or a fix. I recall replying to Adam Seitz's post because reading it gave me the impression that he might benefit having access to additional configuration options that he might not have known about; I then listed two options that I though he might find interesting to play around with. I don't remember claiming that a specific combination of settings fixed anything.
On my computers I tend to keep auto_launch unchecked and regular_auto_launch_interval set to 0, and I have not been experiencing any problems with receiving notifications with those settings in Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx, but I'm not using the intended UI methodology for receiving notifications, so my lack of problems may not be very meaningful. I would describe this a changing to a UI methodology when the problem doesn't exist, not as a fix or a work-around for the problem, since the design team's desired UI methodology is not preserved in my method. A fix or work-around would achieve the desired behavior, instead of changing to a more functional but different behavior. I agree that update-notifier /should/ default to checking regularly instead of weekly and would gladly vote that opinion at any poll that will be reviewed by the design team. The concept of infrequent notification of regularly checked updates confuses me, but I don't experience it with my current settings.
