Eu  concordo plenamente, porem é bom salientar que atualizações de segurança
o próprio nome já diz, agora informar que estão disponíveis atualizações de
segurança e instalar GAMES no lugar é um pouco destemperado em meu
churrasco, creio que o correto é informar o usuário que existem atualizações
disponíveis, porem na linguagem que consta no sistema do próprio.
